Got a Marvel schebler parts carb, was thinking of rebuilding for a spare. I have noticed that there is a small place broken out of the top casting beside and into the threads of the needle seat. I'm pretty sure I can repair this with JB weld, but how will it hold up in the float bowl with the gasoline and what should I coat the threads of the needle seat with so I can get it out if I should ever need to?
Thanks!
Kelvin

Kelvin,

You'll need to practice on some similar materials, threaded brass and cast. In industrial settings we used a product called "silicon release spray". I have had sucess with silicon lube spray. The really hard dart, you cannot get the silicon spray on the cast you want the JB to adhere to. Spray the threaded brass, allow the carriers and propellants to vaporize off. Assemble the parts, fill in with JB. If done correctly, after curing, the brass will thread out, and the JB will have conformed to the threads.

The other option, would be to JB the cast minus the threaded brass, then drill and tap.

Post back and let us know what and how it turns out.

I wish you luck.

Thanks ATW.
The problem with drill and tap is I don't know what thread the needle valve is. Found out the hard way once before its not UNF thread.

Kelvin, Your correct about those threads, Tough to find a tap.

That is why I originally tried the "Silicon Release Spray" It worked, the real trick is to keep the cast free of silicon. By all means if possible pratice on other materials first.

Remember if it doesn't release the seat, you are still no worse off than before.

As for the Jb Weld holding up to gasoline, the product I used was called "Devcon". I've used it in application exposed to fuels(gas and diesel), and crank case oils(timing chain tensioner screw hole rebuild).
