English term or phrase: float hinge pin
The symptom of “Oil dilution when the engine is not running” is typically caused by dirt or debris wedged between the carburetor’s inlet needle and seat. It can also be caused by the float hinge pin sticking, or a defective or mis-adjusted float.

Danish translation:stiften (palen) i svømmerhængslet
Explanation:
Der må her være tale om en stift eller pal, en del af hængslet, og som jeg ikke mener må forveksles med svømmernålen (derfor ville jeg ikke bruge nål i denne forbindelse). Nedenfor har du instruktioner om udskiftning af karburator på dansk og her bruges stift og i den anden reference finder du et billede af din "float hinge pin" på engelsk.

Jeg ville oversætte det:
Det kan også skyldes at stiften (palen) i svømmerhængslet har sat sig fast, eller en beskadiget/fejljusteret svømmer.
