    Yes i realize thats probably what i need to do. THat would make things so much easier than running around trying to fix every problem it has while doing that just makes a new problem haha

    Hmm ?? The float needle supposed to be pushed up by the lever of the float if I am correct, in my
    mind I don't see any wires there... About the gasket, YES, that is an important gasket what concerns
    the functionality of the carb. That's why it's there btw :) If the cover isn't sealed tight the mixture produced
    by the carb may be corrupted and also without gasket indeed gas might seep out..
