My TO30 leaks from the gas bowl and the tank and the fuel line and the Carb.
Is there anything goog to seal the threads?
Thanks,
Jerry

The Bowl itself doesn't appear to be leaking because I did just that, I bought a new bowl.
It's where the bowl screws into the tank and the fuel line screws into the Carb.
I'll try the tape.

You can obtain a gasket for the glass bowl at the Massey-Ferguson dealer. They are about 85 cents. The carb may be leaking because the float is sticking or the vale/seat has a tiny piece of rust in it. Usually cleaning the carb will fix this. As far as the threads, I use teflon tape. It is working so far. I read on here a few days back that it is easier to just buy a new sediment bowl/valve unit ($19) and replace the whole thing. This is what I finally did and it solved all my leaks except at the carb. I am not sure why the carb continues to drip from time to time. I used a unit that was for a Ford tractor because they didn't have one for my TO-20. It fit just like OEM

I have a TO-35 and I have the same leak at the sediment bowl. I have replaced the gasket and the leak continued. I guess the next move is to replace the entire bowl assembly but I still do not understand the leak. The glass bowl should not deform overtime and the aluminum body should not distort either. Baffled!! The bad thing is it leaks onto the bell housing and removes or discolors any paint. Any suggestions?
