No. float adjustment as well as most of the others are made with carb opened up. Fine tuning can be done by accessing adjusters through some of the holes in the carb.
Have you checked the base tining?

Thanks to your great help i decided to open the carb up only to find you were correct the adjustment screw was 2 full turns below what the chiltons book specified no thanks 2 national carbuertor sometimes your better off to do it yourself ehh? I did also discover i may have a blown head gasket on one side due to the factho t i just put new plugs in the thing even though the previous owner had sworn hed put new plugs in well in my search to find answers i discovered that cylinder 5 has some pitting on it around the base is this a for sure sign or could this be from bad valve guides some sort of oil seepage it wasa little bit of white ash on the very tip thanks again latech
