Float height

Hi,
I'm a litlle confuse, float height is the
full movement of the float
(from empty bowl until the valve pin closes) or it's the gap between the float and the valve pin
when the bowl is full until it starts to fill again
Thanks

If you hold the carb upside down. Its the measurment from the top of the float to the lip where the bowl attaches. 15-16mm

Balance the needle so it just starts to seat,and measure the carb body(as Kawdude wrote where bowl attaches to the carb body)to the bowl arm(seam in float).
