    You could try Rotech Research Canada for the carb floats.

    I encountered a vibration and found the propeller main shaft bearing and shaft destructing...
    Lockwood did the repair and couldn't be happier....I went through carb rebuild and syncing
    ignition cables, which were due anyway. What a headache....

    Thanks Mike. My problem seems to be multifactorial. I've had the gearbox removed and checked. Needed significant shimming, which helped. I also had the mechanic from Leading Edge who worked on my gearbox perform a carb synch, which helped a bit more. Floats were fine, and prop blade pitch is within 0.1 degree of each other. My next step is a dynamic prop balance. Making progress....

    Dynamic balancing the propeller is a must and results in a smoother running engine saving wear and tear on engine components.
