whats gasket maker works good

[SmileyRivet]

Seals All is gas proof.... I can vouch for this first hand

One shot deal though as it will be extremely hard to get off once it sets

Seal all is good stuff, I've repaired holes in a gas tank with seal all and a piece of paper, while the gas was running out. Good ****.

hi wbuttry i get at a auto part store locttite superflex red high temp rtv its good up to 500F i use it on all my gaskats high stength threadlocker red for all my bolts & screws gasket material
works nice on carbs i also put rubber o-ring in the carb were it go's on the intake and a rubber o-ring on top of the carb were the cable screws in it's ben 6 months now no leaks and no vacum leaks

if all three carbs are doing the same thing are u sure ur carbs are sitting straight as that will let it leak

 

[wbuttry]

well what it is when i turn my fuel on i can set there and after a few minutes it starts dripping around the top of the bowel and if i lean my bike on it's kick stand it pours out of it and my bolts are tite on my bowl and the gaskets that i found for them are secure in fact i ordered new gaskets for all my carbs and they all still do the same thing all of them i even lowered the float arm so as to have less gas in the bowel waste of time i hate these carbs i wish they would come up with a more reliable engine kit put carbs on like weed eaters have so i half to make absolutely sure it is off or the whole tank of gas will be on the bloody ground.

Something has to be mis-adjusted with your carbs. Either that or there is something wrong inside the carburetor with the contact point where the float needle seals against the needle seat. That said.... the same issue with 3 diferent carbs!?!
Dude you should play the lottery with the odds that you are getting!
I have 2 engines in bikes and 3 carbs and none of them do that.
What kind of fuel filter are you running? Not running a quality in-line fuel filter can cause what you are describing due to crud getting into the float valve and sticking it slightly open.

I don't get how you've got no gasket - what happened to it? Why don't you get some for a dollar or two from a retailer? Why don't you cut your own from gasket material?

With all the issues you're having with your carb, I wouldn't use something that makes it really hard to take it off to work on it later, cause you're probably going to have to get back inside when you realize that the gasket isn't the problem.
