Check the float height by inverting the carburetor and measuring the distance from the float to the gasket surface; it should typically be around 14-16 mm. If adjustment is needed, bend the float arm gently until the correct height is achieved. Reassemble the carburetor and reinstall it on the engine, ensuring all connections are secure.
The float is located inside the carburetor.

The float level on a Polaris 250 generally refers to the height at which the float in the carburetor is set to allow the correct amount of fuel into the carburetor bowl.

It's important to refer to the specific service manual for your model for precise measurements and adjustments. Proper float level ensures optimal engine performance and fuel efficiency.
