Am cleaning and rebuilding a 34 Carb and understand the gas level in the bowl needs to be 3/4" below the top of the bowl. Question: does the float itself need to be parallel with the rim of the bowl at that setting to maintain that measurement?
Thanks.
Bob

To set it dry have the needle and seat and float all in place in the bowl and turn it upside down and then measure from the machined gasket surface of the bowl up to the float and it should be 1/2" and your good to go.

B Bob,
A good starting place is to have the float near level, but with the outer edge slightly higher than the edge near the needle. If the outer edge is on the low side of level your gasoline level will be a bit high. It also depends on which float you have in your carburetor - one has a single bend between the float arm and float, and the later one (for DLTX67-73) has two bends. So it is best to check the fuel level with a 1/8" NPT hose barb and plastic tubing replacing the bowl drain.
