B Carb Float Doesn't fit
I have a 1930 Coupe which has a B Carb on it. While rebuilding the Carb, I couldn't help but notice that the float was pretty dinged up, with numerous dents and solder spots. So I ordered a B carb float from a prominent supplier. The float is the oblong style with the pin bracket offset to one side. The float I received was the same style and pin bracket, but it was worthless as the bracket was not offset so the float would not enter its chamber. I ordered another from a different supplier and received another float that didn't have the pin bracket offset sufficiently to permit entry into the gas chamber of the carb. Does anyone know of a supplier who sells rectangular B floats that actually fit a B carb?

Give Renner's Corner a call. They don't show the float on there site
but they can probably supply one. http://www.rennerscorner.com/index.html |

Re: B Carb Float Doesn't fit
The new "B" floats are all supplied by the same manufacturer and they don't fit without modification. I would try to repair the original float that you have, or see if you can get a used "B" carb that has a good original float.
