Default Fuel Line Barb On Carb

The fuel line barb on my carburator has popped off i tapped it back in and it was fine for a few days but it has popped out again causing the cart to spill gas and lose prime. each time it does this the cart is hard to start. can i epoxy this back in place or how do i go about this? ive tapped it back in with a screw driver and hammer a few times and it manages to make its way back out each time.

You can try the epoxy, rough up the area that goes into the carb body for more "bite".Worse case if it comes out is thread/tap the carb body and screw in a threaded hose barb, not sure without putting a caliper on it but maybe 1/8 pipe thread?

Use JB weld. It will hold up to the heat and fuel.
