What is the float level on a 1982 Yamaha 650 maxim?

Answer 1

The "dry" setting is 17.5mm +/- 1mm from the base of the carb gasket surface (without gasket) to the center of the float (furthest point from the pivot point of the float).

The "wet" setting is 3mm below the gasket base of the float bowl. to accomplish this you fit a hose to the bowl drain and loop the open end to extend above the float bowl/carb surface. Open the drain screw and measure the fluid level from the bottom of the main carb body.
