I just rebuilt the carb and cleaned it. It was dirty at all and i got hardly any crud out of it with cleaner. I only needed to replace some gaskets. The bottom main nozzle screw and the throttle shaft from the bottom still is leaking and dripping. Should i replace the screw on the bottom or is there any kind of sealant i can put around the threads of the screw to stop it from drippin. Also i inspected the shaft and there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with it at all. I've looked around in the archives and i can't find nothing on this topic.
