Small Engines (Lawn Mowers, etc.): exchangeing the float needle, needle point, model numbers


Question
I need to replace the float needle but have never attempted this before. What position does the needle point end face? up or down?
Thank you

Answer
 Hello Ken:

 The Needle goes into the Carburator Housing and the Flat rests on the Float. Send me the Model Numbers Off of the Engine and I can get you a Breakdown of the Carburator and this will Assist you in Doing this Repair. Hope this Helps. Let me know what Happens, Please. Thanks.

 Good Luck

 Respectfully

 John
