    So today I replaced the leaking float needle with one from a 2014 model it was 18mm long and old one 15mm thought this was odd as same carb maybe mine had One from an as1? But after a bit of bending I got the float hight to 10mm and while I had the carb apart dropped down to a 40 pilot jet...

    float height has been set to 10mm couldn't bring myself to go to 16mm can see how any fuel would get in if set that low. the float is about 10 degrees from parallel with the carb body. am i right in thinking that the NEDJ will give a more smoother power delivery as the N3CH will give you more...
