Carter 4 Barrel Top Cover Leaking

So sorry for using the Holly swear word, hope you guys can cut a 70 year old guy some slack. Reset the float levels they were a little off a bit low if anything. What it did discover is that the back two screws had no washers and those screws might have been bottoming out in the holes as they are dead eneded. After a test ride it seems to be better just a little damp, I will order and reolace the gasket and see where that takes me. So pleased for all the responses and information you guys continue to be a great sorce of information and I thank you for that. Its ok that you busted my balls abouth the Holly thing.
