[Healeys] Sticky floats

When I bought my brand new Austin Healey 3000 back in 1967 (and drove it for 
ten years thereafter) I always carried a small spanner with me that would 
fit the float bowls. If I was dressed to the nines, that's when the float/s 
would stick. A sticking float would happen about once a year. When the event 
ocurred, I'd remove the bowl top, blow out the dirt, and continue for 
another year.
