I have a 53' evinrude 3hp and it seems that the float needle is sticking, when I rebuild the carb I replaced the needle and seat and the new one had what looks like a rubber tip,I'm assuming that's not a problem since it and the seat came together...I thoroughly cleaned the varnish from both but just moving the float gently by hand it is still sticking. Sometimes it wil drop in a second or two and sometimes it doesn't. Any ideas on what causes this and how to fix it?
