OK, I will try that, at least on the old one that I took out earlier today (the other one is currently sitting at the bottom of a full tank of gas, that will have to be drained again).

However, what are the chances of TWO floats failing on me (one of them brand-new)?

And, yes, I shook the old float, expecting some obvious signs of liquid being inside, but there was nothing... just a very light (as in only full of air) float.

And, no, there was no binding evident, on either float when installed. That would be too easy!
