The float valve is not stopping the fuel when the bowl is full. In my experience this could be either a defective float, or a needle, or the valve seat, or any combination. My number one suspect was the float. I submerged it in hot water, but I didn't see any bubbles. The valve and the seat look OK. Ideas? Is there a good source for these parts? Help!

Thanks,

Floyd
