hey everybody. i just rebuilt the carb on my '52 cub with a kit that did not contain the float. got that sucker good and clean with some napa carb solvent, cleaned out the tubes, replaced the parts with what was in the kit, then put it all back together. ok, i thought everything was done until i got her started. she will only run when she is choked. once i start letting even a little air in, it dies. im not that good with these things and would appreciate some thoughts on what could be wrong. i used an old float i had, which looked pretty good, however i did notice that the new needle that came with the kit, seems to almost stick when i lift the float up all the way. i tinkered with the sediment bowl also. it was leaking gas really bad. i put a new screen in it and a new washer. it seemed to seal very well. once i turned on the gas, then bowl didnt fill up until i hit the starter. is this the way it is suppose to be? any thought you all might have would really be appreciated.
