I really think you shouldn't mess with this. Now let me gingerly start in. I myself would use a good quality soilder gun. I have like eight of the big Weller D550 guns and have rebuilt all of them. They work fantastic. Next you want to use the new type soilder paste used for doing pipe work. Home depot and Lowes have it. You want everything sparkle sparkley clean. To accomplish this i would go to the cleaning isle of your super market and pick a can of Barkeepers Friend up. A little water, an old tooth brush, and some of that cleaner. Your parts will glitter. The original attached part of the float is all ready tinned. Just re tin your original rod and soilder the new float on. You want to do this ONE TIME. If you mess the joint up then you are going to mess up the integrity of the float. Practice going through the motions of doing the repair. after everything cools dip the new float in a little jar of gasoline. Just watch for any bubbles. Understand the brass that float is made of will dent and can rip like paper. Watch out!
