problems with a ASP 75 Carb

I have a 75 ASP that is leaking where the fuel inlet attaches to the carb. If I close the carb off and pump fuel in the inlet it sprays out behind the needle valve. I can post a picture if that will help. I have tighten it down about as much as I can without stripping the threads. There are 2 washers, one on each side of the inlet and that is where it is leaking. Any suggestions, other than file 13.[&o][&o][&o]

"Just Engines" in England probably stocks the gaskets (washers). You could also check with Hobby People about Magnum carb parts that would be the same.

Are you sure something isn't cracked? It should seal pretty well without the washer even on there. A drop of blue Loctite should seal it up if there's not any damage.

I put some red gasket sealer on the washers and it seemed to correct the problem. I still think I will order a couple of washers.
