Some years back, I converted my 4A to an electric pump. For a regulator,
I did a little project cross-pollenization: I used a FISPA filter/regulator
from an ALFA 1750 with Webers, figuring that it would get me the right
pressure and flow characteristics. I made up a little plate and mounted
it where the fuel pump used to be.

Works great, except that it leaks where the brass hose barbs are
pressed into the pot metal body and staked. What's the right way 
to fix this? JB Weld? Green loctite? Bore and thread (to take what)?

Thanks
chris
