Walbro impulse inlet loose
I have two Walbro carbs that have the impulse inlets loose. They both will just pull right out of the carb. Any idea of how to fix these? Solder, Epoxy,?????

I was going to say solder, not that I've tried it, but the green locktite idea appeals to me. Clean things up good before you do it, and make sure you have it pointing the direction you want before you walk away from it.

You may want to try green loctite on the surface that inserts into the carb & JB Weld on the outside to re-enforce. Just a thought
