Looking for gasoline resistant epoxy

Hello everybody,
A few months ago I rebuild my Q-jet and tweaked it a little with some help and tools from Cliff. Replaced the stops under the primairies and secondairies with the screw in hex bolts and seal it with epoxy. Because I live in the Netherlands I had to find some fuel resistant epoxy overhere and I thought I had found it. But I notice the engine doesn't start right away after a few days, turns out the fuel chamber is empty so I think the exopy I bought isn't as resistant as I thought it would be. So my question. Could somebody help me or direct my to a good fuel resistant epoxy? Thanks
Groeten Peter

Thanks, that is what I ordered from Cliff and put into my carb. But there wasn't any epoxy included at that time and I think I choose the wrong epoxy. So I'm looking for the right fuel resistant epoxy to seal the screws with.

maybe there is an equivalent to to "Marine Tex" or "Devcon" up there. I guess you might need to look at a boat supply or boat repair and ask them what is fuel resistant and if they sell it.
