Floats are Tarnished!

[Bssoap74]

I just pulled off the carbs and the floats are a bit tarnished. Do I need to replace, Clean, what? Any help appriciated. I have attached a picture for reference.

Take a brass brush to them with carb cleaner if this bothers you; mine are a bit dingy, but something like this shouldn't affect performance unless they are so grimy that junk is contaminating the fuel. Yours look like they could use a little elbow grease, but this looks mostly cosmetic.

Thanks bcware! Jets should be in thurs. and will be jetting for pods and mac exhaust.

Seriously? How often do you show off your floats?

Tarnish isn't really a problem. Normal for this to occur over time.

If you are looking for bling in your bowl, the best product would be a marine epoxy, it would stand up to the gasoline and might make you smile everytime you open your carbs. I have done some pretty goofy things for my own pleasure when I do maintenance stuff.
