Karl,

I've always set my floats as illustrated in fig 14. Just ensure that
when in the upside down position they are parallel to the float chamber
face as they say in the write up. I've never worried about actual
measurements at all. As for their measurements, make one parallel and
then measure it to see what it comes out to. It probably is 36mm.

I am running a set of PHF's on my elo and am trying to set the floats. I
looked up the specs in the Dellorto manual but they are a little confusing.
They show the specs at 18.5 + 17.5 mm

http://www.ducatimeccanica.com/float_levels.html

Setting them a 18.5 or 17.5 is way to high. Do you add the values together
(36 mm) and if so why not just say 36mm. Does anyone have any ideas on how
to read this ?

Will they bolt on or do I need some sort of adapters or brackets?

Ted:

You could have a blockage in one or both mufflers that's causing excessive
back pressure if they're that deteriorated. Sounds like you need a new set
regardless.

I got my transmission back in again (!) and my distributor back
in with new points and yet another new condensor (just in case).
Clutch is working great, but bike still won't run worth a crap.

One thing that is weird, I have stock mufflers ('74 eldo) and
both mufflers have recently begin crapping out their internals.
The little round pipes are sticking out of the pea holes at the
end of the mufflers, one sticks out about 2 inches and is
completely loose on the inside.

Is there anything I can do about this or are the mufflers just
shot? This wouldn't cause the bike to run badly would it?
