here is my questions about the carb,,,  1. what is this for? it was leaking so i stuck a pice of wood instide it , but that didnt stop the leak.. 2. what is this tube for? where should it go? 3. i think i may have to open it andr replace this gasket ... could i make my own out of a gasket sheet? |

That is amazing!!! And yes it is called the Float in English. I was guessing that's why it was leaking. No idea what that thing is where you've blocked it with wood? Im guessing its supposed to have a breather tube attached to it. |
