So, which one did you use ?  16mm is .630" and 17mm is .669".

Since height is measured above the float, setting the measurement high
results in a low fuel level.  If you are "running out" of fuel rather than
getting too much, you might try setting the float height on the low side.

I'm too lazy to look it up, but ISTR there being something about this
problem in the "Competition Preparation" manual.  Maybe it was for an SU
carb, but IMO it would be worth looking up.
