90Hp Johnny, top carb bowl inlet leaking like a sieve between plastic inlet and carb body. can not find a part #, does this mean complete bowl replacement
Re: 1985 90 hpCarb inlet leaking is it replaceable or new bowl
Edit: No, the fitting is just sweated. The earlier brass nipple ones are less likely to leak, especially if you put them on with 3M scotch-grip 847. Check 1980 115 carburetor for the brass.
I was wrong about the threads on the brass, there are none. The fitting was seated with sealer like 847.
