LD340 Can’t Get The Carb Base To Seal

OP;
if you're ok with taking a chance of spewing one of the most volatile liquids on the face of the Earth, directly at the spark generator, at least do your due diligence. The factory made the best little metal clamps for that location, but they must be correctly sized for the fuel line being used.
As for me;
In a million years I would not engineer an in-line filter between the pump and the carb. And I sure wouldn't install zip-ties on it. But it looks real pretty.


The fuel filter does not have zip ties, it has factory fuel line clamps. The pcv valve and hose are in the factory position.
Even the throttle return spring bracket is factory. I'll give it to you on the plug wires, but talk about misinformation. Wow
