Gadgetman Posted July 8, 2019 Report Share Posted July 8, 2019 On a Vitesse 1600 with CD150’s, what is the float height? and is the height till it touches the float chamber valve or till it’s depressed??? The worship manual doesn’t quote the height for Strombergs, only SU’s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johny Posted July 8, 2019 Report Share Posted July 8, 2019 Hi, I imagine it would be the same as for a 2L which, if checking with the carb on the engine, is 18mm from the lowest part of the float to the bottom face of the carb body while the float is held upwards keeping the needle valve closed.

Pete Lewis Posted July 9, 2019 Report Share Posted July 9, 2019 Dont know what wsm you have but triumph 1600 manuals show the float height as johny has said Shows as with it upside down so weight of float is sitting on the needle valve its def 18mm from base of the float to carb body gasket face Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gadgetman Posted July 9, 2019 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2019 Thanks guys the page must be missing from my manual ( it’s the original black workshop manual in the binder so easy for pages to get lost over the years!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
