i put a new jet in my carb and now its pouring gas was created by Dodson
So I changed the jet. and now its pouring gas out of my over flow tube at the bottom of the bowl. I was wondering if I accidentally moved the floats I tried to be extra gentle . any help is greatly appreciated

Put your bike year and model in your signature, next to the "tiger killer"
Float valve/ needle and seat has nothing to do with the slide. It is wear the float hangs and pivots, this valve and the float height controls the level of fuel in the float bowl. Very important to have the Correct fuel level in the float bowl. You can see the level of fuel by using a clear piece of tubing hooked to the drain on the float bowl, held up against the carb body with the Petcock turned to "Prime". It should be just below the mating gasket surface.
