Drill the hole and drain it, then shoot some carb cleaner in the hole and drain it again and leave it sit for a day. I have drilled two small holes opposite each other so I can blow air into one hole to ventilate the float.
The carb cleaner should seep out wherever the crack is but the float has to be dry first. A drop of solder will fix the hole or holes but it is touchy. Completely clean the area around the hole and crack, smear a little flux on it and drop a drip of solder on the hole and crack with a really hot soldering gun. If the solder is real hot you might be able to touch the float real quick with the soldering gun and the solder will spread and stick. You want to keep the float cool or hot air in the float will cool and shrink and collapse the float. This trick will get you going and buy you some time to find a new float.
