[AT] OT / chainsaw question

Hi Ivan, what about mixing up some JB weld, and using it like loctite? I'm thinking the thicker consistency might make up for excess play between the screw and threads. Mike M

 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
