I just picked up a set of NOS float arms for the RD (Ebay actually came through with a good deal). They are your typical brown brass color from age with small hints of corrosion, but far away from the float operation. Aside from setting the fuel height, etc. I was just gonna clean them off with a course rag and some carb clean. Should I be concerned about polishing the float arms up a bit?
ive done that where the pin resides but have never noticed any direct benefit. wont hurt.
Ok, ill clean em and set the floats. I think I'll set them up in a vice or something eye-level and try out the fuel level measure from Evans Ward.
I found some NOS ones a while back.
They were a bit twisted so make sure the alignment is correct & both floats sitting evenly.
I polished the the area where needle goes too.
