Jb weld

Is it safe to use jb weld in a cracked main jet holder, or is there a different type of stuff to use in fuel.

Thanks
Ray

JB Weld lives in gasoline just fine. Many a cracked jet holder have been fixed this way.

I cut the end off a .45 shell casing, and shove it down over the cracked main jet tube with JB Weld. Great permanent repair.

I'd forgot about that trick. Glad you mentioned it again.

Definitely a good tip. Makes the repair much stronger.
