Float Needle 1998 Force 40 hp

[martyb499]

I'm trying to be a do it yourself guy, but I'm having trouble identifying the part I need for a 1998 force 40hp carb. The carb is a tillitson with numbers 854446 and tc 135a 736. Went to a shop today and looked around on the internet, but can't seem to find a float needle or a rebuild kit for this carb. Can anyone point me in the right direction for this part number?
