No, floats are not adjustable. Alright, I'll try the q tip thing! Any ideas where the vacuum problem might be coming from? Thanks so much. Yeah I got the idle dialed with that knob. Do you think the pipe leaned the bike out enough to be a problem?
While you've got the carbs out, check the overflow tubes for cracks. That can cause leaking as well. Some guys have had good results fixing cracked overflow tubes with JB weld.
You should be able to adjust the float by bending the tang if needed. Check the FSM or other threads on this board.
Good luck.
