Default Help...how to check the floats....

I know people have posted how to do it before, but I need to know to check mine. I think mine are just barely messed up, because it doesn't screw up like the old raptor did, but this one has a minor miss to it on steep hills. So I would like to check the floats and make sure the are not completely out of whack...

Just take off the drain tube on the bottom of the carb and use a clear hose in place. Make a "U" shape in the hose and run it up next to your carb. Then open up the drain screw and the tube will fill to the level in your carb. It should be level with or just above where the bowl and carb meet. Good luck! I had the same problem, mine were way off at one time. Let me know if you have any other questions....
