Cosmo, not all hope is lost. If you don't know your way arround a carb, either take it off and bring it into your local shop and ask them to help you a bit. May cost a few dollars, but shouldn't be much.

If you do turn a wrench once in a while, it's not that bad a deal. Read the article that I posted a link to (not mine, but it is good) Near the end (several pages) he shows the measurement for the float....your's may be a little different, so just measure yours and raise it a bit farther off the top of the carb. NOTE this would mean lowering the float in the bowl, (carb is shown and adjusted upside down from mounting possition)say 1/32" ....use a drill bit of the right size to get your measurement. While you're in there, give it a good rince down with carb cleaner. If it's running right, don't mess with the adjustments, just the float. Also, seat the needle like I described above and make sure that area is clean.

Hope you get her fixed up.
