This is the stuff I used last time I decarbonized.....

Well...bummer.

That's the line I couldn't replace because I would be unable to attach a clamp at the carburetor cause of clearance issues. Pretty sure that's where my gas leak is coming from. It looks like I can't even tighten the thing without removing the air box.

I did get a new petcock rubber gasket though but haven't gotten around to fixing it.

If you are using those awful screw-type hose clamps throw them all away as I did many years ago. The spring type (shown below) are a million times easier to use; especially in tight places. Any auto parts store should carry them or you can buy them online. Ed
