The important characteristic of floats is buoyancy, not weight. If volume
remains constant, then buoyancy can be determined by measuring weight.
However, reducing volume will also reduce buoyancy. The result could be
increased fuel level, just the opposite of the desired outcome.
The volume of two different brands of floats may not be the same. Therefore
weight alone can not be used to measure buoyancy. The best way to determine
suitability of floats is to install them and measure the height of fuel.
