Dan,
If you purchase a rebuild kit with a float in it, or like I did, purchase a float by itself (Gordon Rice) it will come with directions on how to bend the float arm and what level to adjust it to. The float is fragil and can be damsged easily.
If I am not mistaking there were some small engine gurues that found a certain specific small engine carburetor float (brass) did the job with little modification. Wish I knew which float it was as the cork floats seem to fail regularly. The main problem for me was the float hanging up after rebuild. When you have the carbuerator rebuilt gently turn it upside down. You should hear the float move down when you do so. I took mine on and off a few times for adjustment before it would swing free.
I also shut my tractors off by shutting off the gas and letting them run down, which in theory means less cork/gasoline exposure.
