Home made puller. 4 inch plastic pipe from Home Depot with notch cut to clear wires.
All thread shaft with 6 by 1.0 mm bolt welded on the tip.
Could have used a 1/4 inch all thread shaft if I had one, and run a 6 by 1.0 mm die on the end.
Anything with a hole to put shaft through. I used a milling hold down clamp.
Ratchet wrench for quicker work.
Much better than using a slide hammer as a puller.

I believe it is supposed to be magnetic. Not sure if it has a removable insert.Originally Posted by C. Dolan
Is the float supposed to have a magnetic insert ?
Mine seems to be a sloppy fit on the shaft.
I'm wondering if there is an insert missing causing low gas light.
Didn't get any magnetic feel when I stuck a round steel shaft inside.
Seemed like a very sloppy fit, as if something missing inside.
Would be interesting to see if adding a magnetic insert would solve the fuel light problem.

Did you check the pins in the wiring harness on the fuel pump side? I recently had an issue with my fuel pump and one out of the four connectors was messed up. I gently pulled out the metal and bent it back and now I'm getting a solid connection.
Also, if you need a picture of a brand new fuel pump let me know. I have a brand new fuel pump in the garage from EBR that arrived today.

Mostly I need a picture of the inside of the float to see if mine is missing a magnetic insert.
When looking for the plug coming from the fuel pump, remove the seat. On the side of the + terminal of the battery, there will be a bunch of wires wrapped up. Pull that whole thing of wires away from the side of the battery. Then you will see a plug at the bottom with four wires going on, that will be the fuel pump connection. Pull the harness apart and check the pins on the fuel pump side of the harness.
Getting a picture for you now...........
Just click on the link for the two photos:

One is fuel pump plug & the other is the fuel pump float. There isn't a magnetic insert
Carburetor-fueled bikes using manual fuel taps with reserve feature cannot be beaten for dependable reliability, the modern EFI gizmo world sucks.
