 Well I do use the fire wood to heat the garage wher I work on the tractor 
,so ....
 Anyone have idea of how to get the carb adapter on a Poulan chainsaw to 
stay tight . The screws keep coming loose ,tried cleaning the threads & hole 
with carb cleaner and compressed air . Used red locktite thinking maybe I 
could get it to stay tight for more than five minutes .  The screws are kind 
of triangular shape  and I thought maybe re tap the holes with a 1/4 -28 and 
use a real bolt ,but when I tried it on a scrap cylinder it doesnt cut good 
threads . My saw is a 220 pro but I also have my uncles 2150 that I'm 
working on and it has the same problem .   Thanks, Ivan
