Loctite for carb jets?

[WannaBee]

Hello all. So, while waiting on Bikeberry to get my part in and send it to me( btw, I have a 66cc flying horse mounted on a 1957 Murray Westport) I thought I'd go over the bike, give her a little check up. Upon opening up the HP carb I found the stock jet(#78) so loose it nearly fell out in my hand. I am replacing it with a #66 anyway and am wondering if blue loctite would be appropriate on the jet threads?

No, use epoxy
But serious no locktite
Gas and Locktite NO BUENO
Just lightly tighten the jet it won't come loose

Hey Bee, get some proper brakes for your bike don't rely on that coaster, it'll lock up on you at the most inconvenient time.

Wow that would suck. Never had that happen to me before but this is my first motorized bike. And why I'm on this forum, for info like that. Thanks Chainlube, I'll start research on handbrake options.

These people can help you get a disc brake adapter for the front and recommend a good solution for the rear

This kind will work great for the rear. https://www.ebay.ca/itm/Campagnolo-...027324?hash=item2895269bfc:g:qIQAAOSw3Ppe0u-~ Not that particular one, kinda expensive, but you know what to look for.
