68 skylark 350-2 float level

[Orange]

hi all, having a problem with my carb flooding so wondering if anyone has the measurements for the float. have found lots of helpful information/pictures etc and specs for up to 1965 but can not find the specs for my year/model carb.

it is the original 1968 7028140 2GV 2bbl rochester carb.

ta, Orange.

I just rebuilt my rochester 2bbl
lemme find the instruction sheet - they even provided two rulers and guages for setting the float, etc.
check here tomorrow

OK, let's see if this works. #1 lists the Buick 2bbl carbs,
#2 gives all the options; A,B,C, etc that you will find on list #1.

hmmm, that didn't work

lemme try to just post for 7028140

if you know HOW to make the adjustment;
float level 15/32
float drop 1-9/32

I used a 15/32 drill bit for the level

When I rebuilt the Carter 4bbl, I didn't pay too much attention to the float level and when I installed the electric fuel pump she was flooding (gas coming out the accelarator pump fitting).
fortunately, I didn't have to remove the entire carb to make the correction, just the top of the carb - still, it was a PIA.

awesome, thanks for your reply. got it all set correctly now (was too high) and it runs like a dream.

thanks Orange.
