OK i need help. I have adjusted floats on a harley before but i don't see how these are really very adjustable? How do i adjust these floats? Pics and an explanation would be good.
I'm thinking my son just injested a bunch of powder and starved the sled the day he had an issue.

I had to readjust mine on the 05 RX Warrior. I used a flat head screwdriver and lightly bent the little tab that the needle hangs on. Only way to adjust them with this design. Do it while they are attached and on the carb to make it easier. Hold the float up and bend the tab down very little each time until you reach your specs.
With the carb upside down? Where do you take measurements from?
Bending tab down in this orientation would cause the float needle to close sooner cutting off fuel?
