Next issue was the Borg/Warner needle & seats that had been previously installed. These units are responsible for more junked float bowls than I can count.

That made this thread worth the read (in case some of you didn't think it was already ). I KNOW that I have used the BW needle and seat on many rebuilds and have suffered many a floading condition and/or leaking afterwards. I never gave the needle and seat a second thought as being the culprit. Thank you very much for that information. Now if I can only retain that little tidbit of information in my pea sized brain.
