markjs Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 So I have a weber/carter type carb on my EA81 and it has this FUNKY way of attatching, I believe it's 2 nuts and then the carb is secured to that piece by several allen screws. The allen screws inevitably back out on me and then I start idling funny. Seems to run fine at speed as funny as that is.... What can I do? Loctite?

Jerry DeMoss Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 I had a carter/weber before and had the same problem.Loctite seemed to solve the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MilesFox Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 "floppy carb syndrome" idles fast and hard to start. if you tighten them up they will loosen eventually. use loc-tite!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
