Getting ready to rebuild an old briggs and Stratton 7/8 updraft carburetor. Have heard they make leak gas even after rebuild.
Have also heard I might need to add additional gaskets to the carburetor and additional gaskets to the main jet . Although these carbs are made of pot metal, one suggestion I do not agree with but this concerned a complete new carb was to turn the main jet screw a little tighter.
Guess what I am asking is for any suggestions or tips before starting project and where is a good source to order parts.
Thank you for your help
