    The Honda factory workshop manual says on Page 4-1 the float level is .350
    On page 4-3 it shows .300
    On Page 1-4 it shows .350

    I called HONDA and they said to go with .350 measurement.

    They are also looking into it.

    That would be good to know, I'll probably be pulling mine off soon.

    The Owner's Maintenance Manual says .330"

    .330/8.5mm would be for the Canadian model

    Some confusion here.

    This is the HONDA workshop manual.

    Page 4-1 bottom of page.

    Reads: Float Level................9.0mm (.035 in) < Canada model: 8.5mm (.033 in)>

    Exact quote.
