    I'll attach it again for good measure:

    In the above picture, you can see the "elbow" that I've talked about in my other posts. Suggestions on making it stay attached to the carbs?
    I can't see it, either, and I have registered access to some Google sites. Please consder hosting your pictures on Photobucket for posting here. As GateKeeper mentioned, there are other sites, but Photobucket seems to be the most friendly to use as a poster and as a viewer. One of the worst, from a viewer's point, is ImageShack, please avoid that one, if you can.

      Weird. I had another user here at work check it out, just to make sure and it shows up fine for him as well. In fact, I was even able to upload it by posting the URL into Photobucket.
      Here it is again:

        OK, NOW I see it.

        No idea why you might have removed that fitting instead of simply slipping the hose off of it, but you might try some super glue to hold it in place.

          I was trying to break the carb down into as many pieces as possible so that I expose everything to carb dip. I may have gotten a little overzealous.

          But really, superglue works?

            I have never had to fasten that part back in, but Super Glue is supposed to bond metal to metal.

            A bit of Loc-Tite might work, too. Not sure if blue or red would be better.

            Using Loc-Tite would allow you to force the parts apart again, if necessary. If you wanted to make a more-permanent repair, mix up a little bit of JB Weld.

              As I just happen to have some JB Weld sitting around, I'll probably go that route.

              Thanks guys!
