      Hello, Anyone have a home made trick for carburetor packing. I just tried teflon tape and that did not work.

      Thanks, John, Member

        The packing for the needle jets? By my experience, everyone is going to tell you to just buy the o-rings.
        You could get a gasket punch kit and knock them out, but it’s not necessarily going to be an accurate punch. I’ve messed around with o-rings, they work well enough for me.

          O-Rings ?? OK, I’ll give them a try.

          Thanks, John

            I started a thread where I talked about it. You should be able to search my username and o-rings and find the size

              WOW, I put one(O-RING) in and so far I think it will do the trick.

              Thanks again, John

                Glad to have helped. Make sure that the material the o-ring is made of can withstand gasoline and ethanol so you don’t have any issues.
