Im rebuilding the carb on my gs125 again and double the checking the float height i realised i dont know where the bottom of the float is. The manual states to measure from the gasket face to the bottom of the float. But i dont know what is considered as the bottom of the float. Hopefully this picture will help, is the bottom of the float the red or blue line?

Thanks for your reply Thumbs Up
I've now rebuilt the carb but i measured the float height to the red line and it doesnt overflow so it must be ok Laughing

I also found that the pilot jet was partially blocked so that was probably causing the running problems and now it seems to run ok!
