Demon carb issue. Yeah Yeah you told me so..
« on: June 06, 2015 - 01:34:16 PM »
had an issue with the front bowl leaking and discovered the factory thread inserts were not holding,sending back full credit for something else.  are all these carbs come standard with helicoils installed or is that something that's just typical for the Demon carbs? other then that the carb ran great.
