Spaccoli (or anyone)...where is this carb leak you're talking about, what's the fix for it, and how do you remove the carb? I took of that set screw that appeared to be holding the carb on, but it didn't release it...obviously a pin there, but how to get it out?????
Do a bubble test first to see if you have a leak.
Just tap on "set screw" (pinch bolt) on the end with the bolt, it will move , just takes a tap. Once it's loose try to make both sides of the pinch bolt even on each side in relation to the hole it's in. This will keep the curved part of the pin somewhat centered with the carb throat. Start roating carb back and forth while pulling up. Just be careful, there is a lower o-ring that can get caught on the pinch bolt and get damaged.
I think I damaged mine the first time I pulled the carb. the lasts time went good.
There is two o rings, I would say the top one is the most important one. I moved my one good o-ring down to the lower groove and bought on a little fatter 0-ring that the stock for the carb base.
I oiled it up and slid back into engine, compressed the fatter o-ring slightly asnd tighten.
Seal up the pinch bolts of both sides and your done.
Let sealant set up and do a bubble test to look for leaks.
