Post Carburetor gasket
The gasket between the 2 halves of the Carburetor fits under the float swivel bar as shown in the picture.

The is obviously a way of getting this bar off to replace the gasket.

Anyone know how it comes apart?

Cheers

is there not a pin that you push out? or is it spring loaded on?

Norman,
you need a small drift ( read as drill bit or nail) to tap that bar out.

Btw, you shouldn't have been able to remove the float with the bar still in place, so best to close up those 'fingers' which form the support for the float assembly before refitting it...

Thanks Ken that seemed to be the only way but i didnt want to use too much force and crack the casting.
