Float Level

I am going to check the float level tomorrow, never done it before. Will the carb have a float mark or is there a certain height the fule should be? Its an Autolite 2100A on a 69 F250
Thanks
Aaron

[updated:LAST EDITED ON 25-Jan-02 AT 11:27 PM (EST)]In every re-build kit is a special cardboard measuring device.

Do a google for "Carburetor Float setting"
