Hi
I'm new to MZ's and am asking for a bit of advice .
I have a 1977 MZ 150 TS, it uses the BVF 24N-1 carb.
I had to buy new floats but how do you measure float height?
Measurements in manual state 27mm +1 and 34mm + 1. Does this then mean you adjust height of float to 28mm ( for closed position) and 35mm ( for open position)? Does the + 1mm just take into account the gasket thickness of the float bowl so therefore add it on to height adjustment ?
Also book states that you hold carb upside down to measure closed position height ( 27mm +1) however I have read elsewhere and on You tube you should hold carb at a 35 to 45 degree angle when measuring heights?
Please bear in mind I am not mechanically minded but don't mind trying out 'simple' procedures
Thanks in advance
Brian

Following a biased and flawed moderator choice (someone posting aggressive personal attacks is rewarded, while my technical posts are removed - behind my back & without any justification!), I have withdrawn from this forum.
