Does it have an oil tank for the two-stroke oil??

Yeah, I think it is just a vent. One on each side, then one on the bowl (overflow).

Man. My eyes were tricking me. :-0

So my findings are you
Old carb new carb
H6-52. W8-71
V27-3. V27-3
Mj 340. Mj 320
Float bowl 1-f. Float bowl 2p
Needle 6fl52. Needle 6f39

So beside that all the dimension floats pilots seem to all be the same the 6f39 is about 4m longer and thicker at end

Hey thought I'd ask before I do another post so after the carb I've setteld on putting the 320 jet in which is stock I think, and put the needle on lowest clip since it longer lol, so next I check my reeds/reed block and I noticed the plastic has been melting on one side, could bad reeds cause this and be half my problem with idle/and power
Thanks

I don't think the insert would be a problem.

Are you not running the stock carb?

Same carb but like I said wrong needle,
One positive is I out the 320 jet in, put needle clip lowest and I can now get a good idle so a small win,
