The opps was supposed to be a part of a previous email. The bike is a C70 Passport, 1981 vintage. The carb is an after market carb from dratv. What I was asking is where the float level should be set with this carb, if anyone knows. I think it is different due to the carb design. It was set from the factory as low as it could go. I set it to the Honda spec, .45" if my memory is good today, and it over flowed when parked. The needle is a different taper then the Honda carb so I am not sure the middle groove on the needle is correct either. The lowest groove was the factory setting and would allow the most fuel flow. I did set it to the middle groove once and it did not run as good as the lower groove. I am going to check the main jet and put in the Honda jet if it is a different size. I think the Honda size was 90 but I can not find a number on either jet.

depends on what you are talking about!? If you are talking C70s, then what year!?
Say 1980-81C70, then see pages 4, 41 through 49, especially 45 of the free online shop manual here
