Re: gas leaks at fuel bowl

Go to NAPA (or wherever) and purchase Permatex Number 1 hard setting gasket paste. It's the thing to use for thread sealing involving gasoline. Let it dry overnight.

Lord 304 epoxy also works great, but it's only sold by the quart.

Also, carefully inspect the tank for a crack from over tightening. When you put the bowl in the crack might be expanding and causing leakage.

Hope this helps.
