carb leak dtx .18
 
i had a massive carb leak on my evader that would cause very eratic idles/revs at certain points in the throttle.

Well it did fine today. but when i tested it for leaks with soapy water, with the carb barrel cracked open a little bit, and blow into it, no leaks. if i close the carb completely no leaks.
if i put my finger over the carb hole and blow, it leaks enormously, is that ok? will it hurt the performance, i put some more sealant on there where it is leaking when ihold the carb closed with my finger, byut it seemed fine.

Do you think i need to go in and replace the entire carb?

where is it leaking from on the carb??? from one of the needles....pull them out and replace the o rings and add a little green slime.
