hi guys
i have recently completed scratch building a 23 cc single four stroke engine & after a few problems with the ignition & plug failing (which with your help i have now sorted. my problem is, the engine runs sweet on a small lawn mower carb i fitted to it but of course i want to make my own, i have now made one with emultion tube & air screw and a float cnamber BUT i cant scall down the float & get the needle to shut so the float chamber keeps flooding i could make the float chamber bigger & put a bigger float in it but it will look out of place. so i am thinking of making a carb of a different design & would like to buy a book but can't find one on model carbs any suggestions please.
cheers steve
