[Fot] Float needle valves

[rek46]

NO GROSSS JETS...lousy and not for competition....Use GOOD/New old style floats....you need positive open and close.....heres a tip..check your float direction for best perf....meaning , are you having brake to accel. probs on heavy brake corners?  You prob have each float facing toward center...not best....Solved by making both floats face same direction(frt. or back)....rick In a message dated 3/17/2021 12:04:02 PM Eastern Standard Time, fot at autox.team.net writes:

 Phil,I use the plain old solid needles in both street and race cars and haven't had any issues. They do wear out eventually, but after 7 years in the race car, I still haven't had a problem.

I suspected some flow issues and others had said that they had issues.
