Patrick,
The way I did it was suggested by the Guzzi dealer, Sport Cycles. I will
try it your way. I did check to see if the floats were invaded with gas but
they were clear and seemed intact. Thanks, Bob

Huh? Can't do that. Just because you lift the float by hand and it
closes
 the fuel flow doesn't mean it is correct. You need to know that the fuel
is
 stopped when the float is at its resting fluid position in the bowl. You
need to MEASURE the float level versus the carb body. Has to be off the
bike
 and held upside down for the measurement.

Any chance you have a bad float with a little leak so that it sinks a
little
 as it warms up?
