Just wondering before re-installing these on CL77, 1966--should there be any sealant on the threads to insure a snug non-seepage issue?
Also,, any sealant needed on the o ring in petcock bowl, or the oval rubber gasket where petcock assembly meets gas tank bottom?
Had a small drip coming from area of banjo bolt washer (which are really old but look OK), and don't want to over-tighten, yet still insure tight fit. Thanks.

Re: Banjo Bolt Sealant?
HONDA didn't use any sealant on any part of the carburetor.
That said HONDA did use a stick um on the bowl gasket and the gasket on the carb top cover.
It wasn't to seal that area but was simply to hold the gaskets in place as the carbs were assembled on the assembly line. ...............lm
