I have a leaking fuel line fitting at the carb.  It is leaking at the fitting around the tube.  There seems to be a rubber washer there that has failed.  Wondering if anyone has ever fixed one of these type of fittings or if they are repairable.   Hate to spend $70 on a new one if I can repair this one for a few dollars .

I think it uses the aluminum or copper fuel bowl inlet washers.

They used to be available in the Help section at auto parts stores, haven't looked for any for quite a while .
Good info but those I have.  It is leaking where the tube goes into the male fitting.   See my great rendering of the tube and fitting.  You will have to enlarge the pic or get new eyes to read the print.   :D The fitting has a small collar and it looks like there is a roll pin in the collar.
