📖 The importance of the weight of the float in competition

In karting, every detail of the focus account. The weight of the float (here 4.0 gr) is not chosen at random: it is calculated precisely to balance the thrust of Archimede fuel in the tank and the force exerted on the needle.

If a float is damaged, pierced, or if it absorbs fuel over time, its actual weight increases, which distorts the tank level. A tank level too high causes permanent locking and carburation too rich; Conversely, too low levels dangerously depleted the mixture with acceleration. Replacing a tired float with a newly grammage of strict origin is essential for regular performance.

🔧 Michel's trick

"Michel, our technical expert, recommends you: when disassembling the vessel of your PHBG 18, handle the float with care. Check that it flows freely on its axis without any side friction and does not contain gasoline inside (By shaking it gently to the ear). Also be sure not to twist the small metal legs support on the needle when reassembling, as this instantly modifies the height of the tank level."

⚠️ Security Council: An unexplained variation in the behavior of your low or mid-speed engine (acceleration holes, engorge) can come from an incorrect tank level. Check the status of your float during each large carburetor revision.

❓ FAQ: your frequent questions

Q: How do you know if my carburetor float is defective ?

A: A faulty float may be pierced (gasoline then penetrates inside, which weighs it and causes it to the bottom of the tank) or have a wear of its pivot axis. If your tank is constantly overflowing despite a new needle, check the integrity of your float.

Q: Is the weight (4.0 gr) important for compliance with the regulation ?

A: YES I DO. Use a strict grammage float (4.0 g) ensures that the gasoline volume in the vessel complies with the manufacturer's design and the tolerances required in monotype competition.

Q: Does this float install easily on a PHBG 18 carburetor ?

A: Yes, the replacement is very simply after depositing the carburetor tank: it is enough to gently chase the pivot axis, remove the old float and set up the new model by ensuring its free movement.
