C2 3367 Fuel Bowl Leak
The "plug" (I have attached a picture)on the side of my secondary fuel bowl is leaking. I researched the archives and it looks like a good fix is epoxy. Can I leave the plug in and just cover with epoxy after cleaning with acetone? Or do I need to remove the plug and then fill? If I do need to remove the plug, how is this done?

Frank, leave the plug in the bowl. Just work the epoxy in between the plug and the outer lip of the bowl. -

Not the same place as yours, but on top of my Holley fuel bowl I used JB Weld several months ago and it is not leaking.Comment

Re: C2 3367 Fuel Bowl Leak
i have been told by my contact a holley there is a "O" ring under that plug and soaking in carb cleaner destroys it. someone suggested using fuel proof clear model airplane dope as a sealer as it is not as visible as the epoxy. i have not tried that.Comment
