You have what is known as a "constant level flow control carburetor." Do a search on that text string, and you will find the instructions. They are common on all the oil stoves, including the new catalyst models being sold today. So, if all else fails, a heating shop will have a kit for yours. Just as a side, check the tube from the carburetor to the oil pot, and make sure it is brushed clean on the inside. Then check your arming lever on the carb to make sure it is on. Then it is a matter of setting the oil level to the line on the body of the carb (the body looks a bit like an oval when viewed from the top, and there will be a line cast into either the inside (after you pull the top) or the outside. Adjust your float to keep the oil at that level, no higher and no lower. The needle gets worn, and may need replacement. If they dribble, the oil level will run too high and you will have a problem getting a clean burn. If you have a bit of valve grinding or diamond lapping paste, you can lap the seat and valve and get another ten or twenty years out of the old one. Hope this helps.
