Weber DGV 32/36 float adjustment gauge

cults3d

This a highly esoteric thing - but very useful when needed. When setting up a Weber DGV 32/36 carburettor the first thing that must be done is to set the fuel chamber float to the correct level. Normally this is done by squinting across the float towards a metric rule, with the aim of getting it to sit 41mm above the carburettor cover in one position, and 51mm in another. This is quite fiddly, especially when you're holding a fragile set of components in your hand. This simple gauge makes the whole job much easier, as all that is necessary is to hold the gauge over the float and see whether there is a gap between them (too low) or if the gauge is pushing the float (too high). As this job usually involves several attempts to get the float adjustment tabs in their correct positions then a simple gauge makes life much easier. This was designed in OpenSCAD, so it can be modified for any different needs.
