Can anyone tell me by adjusting the float level in the carby does it change the mixture If it does wich way leans it and richens the fuel mixture thanks mick29
 
It in no way can replace doing it properly, IE: changing the fuel jet but....
Raising the float level can enrichen the mixture.
Lowering it can lean the mixture.

the float is what makes fuel availible to the jet, the vacumn of the engine causes fuel to flow up the jet to mix with air flowing thru the carb as long as there is enough fuel in the float bowl yer ok, by making the jet smaller you restict the amount of fuel- leaner, enlarge the jet, more fuel-richer.frank
 
the boys on those video's ought to be able to fix your problem!!! at least one got his engine to run and it wasn't even on a bike!! Good way to set the seal in place or what ever he was doing??? Might need a bigger hammer on those leaky seals or a little tight wood ruff key on the crank. I'd like to see more videos of that high quality work, looks like they are having fun.
