Hey,

i had this problem for a while now but i gave up on it, but i wanna get it running for the summer, my LSN is loose as hell, it leaks fuel when i prime it, by blowing through, and its stopping my engine starting, i can turn it with my finger,. what can i do to keep it in tight, any household items? anything at all!

Sounds like an o-ring problem, take it out completly and see how the ring looks. Replace it if needed and put some grease to prevent this in the future.

i aint got any orings, and they all look fine and dandy.

-SomeGuy-

Well if you needed some then you could get em either at a hardware store or your lhs. If its not the o-ring then i have no idea why the lsn is leaking and has no grab, its the only thing that holds it in there. The only other option i can think of is a new carb.

my man you could try ptfe tape
its aplumbers tape that they use for sealing threaded pipes just wrap a bit round ur threads and screw in
hope this helps [8D]
oh and u will get it at B&Q or any 1 of the other stores

-SomeGuy-

Yeah teflon tape could work (plumbers tape) i use it on my exhaust to make sure the header is on nice and tight with the engine.
