I checked the needle and seat. was a tiny bit of stuff there and got that out. all looked OK from what I could see.

Think the float bowl gasket might need replacing though, see pic. only $5.59 anyway.

Also not sure about the thread tape that has been used on the fuel tap. I think bits of that might have been getting in the way of the needle/seat. what should be used rather than tape? is there a threadseal type product that can be used?

when upside down the float seems to be in the right spot. No sign of a hole in the float.

Can't seem to clean the rust out of the float bowl so perhaps a new one of those would be a good idea??? Not sure how much they are, the search function on the store seems to be having problems when I try and search for the part number 221995.
