To adjust the carburetor float on a Polaris Sportsman 500 HO, first, remove the carburetor from the engine. Then, take off the float bowl to access the float mechanism. Adjust the float by bending the tab on the float arm so that it sits at the correct height, typically around 14-18mm from the gasket surface when the float is held parallel to the carburetor body. Finally, reassemble the carburetor and reinstall it on the ATV, ensuring all connections are secure.

You are having problemes with your Honda aero carb fuel just runs out tube at bottom of carb how do you adjust float or is it something else?

The float is stuck in the OPEN position. Try sharply rapping on the float bowl several times with a non -metallic object. Screwdriver handles work great for this. I seriously doubt that the float went out of adjustment all by itself. Worst case scenario - take the float bowl off and spray carb cleaner around inside.

Bend the tab that contacts with the "needle". But DON'T put pressure on the needle when you do so. Carburetor rebuild instructions that come with the carb rebuild kit will tell you how to adjust everything and give optimum float level settings.
