sweathogg:
did you degrease ( w/ acetone or brake cleaner )  the new threads and plugs prior to applying the expxy ?

Cliff Ruggles:
The cross drilled hole is for the accl pump passage.  They seldom leak, and you must take care if threading and installing a plug in that location, not to go too deep.....Cliff

Peer81:
Thanks for the heads up Cliff.

On my other fuel bowl I replaced all the plugs so I know the plug can only be about 3 "threads" deep. I think this time I'll first epoxy it without installing a new plug. I think it's a little to tricky to thread and screw in a plug if I don't need to.

When I have uploaded the pictures I'll post them here.

Greetings Peter
