So I have been working on a 76 CB200 and have gotten it running. The riders right carb would always spew gas when the bike isn't running. my initial thought was a stuck float, just broke the carb down and it didn't seem like it stuck at all. upon closer inspection i noticed a small crack in one of the floats. the float looks like two small snare drums, one of them has a dent in it and were the dent starts there is a small fracture. dried everything off and sure enough when i tip the carb, gas comes out at the crack. i figure if one of the floats is full of gas, it of course isn't going to "float"as it should therefore acting as if it is stuck. is there anyway to fix this without replacing it? the float itself seems to be brass, i am almost wondering if i could solder it. thoughts? i've never tried to solder brass before.
