I'd bet many. Like you, I've read several posts and watched many videos to try and figure it out. I've replaced the float valve 3 times and also replaced the float. I've used the sight gauge and even intentionally set the float level low but the fuel level still creeps up after about an hour. I'm one of those guys that hates leaks so it's been driving me absolutely NUTS! Thanks again for sharing what you learned.
