What is the best way to close the vacuum lines in a stock 83 carb?
Having vacuum problems on carb nothing seems to completely block them off. What is the best way without using vacuum caps ?

Tennis, anyone
vacum caps,,,,,that fit. you don't want to like use silicone, but sometimes it is a real good way to cap off vacum openings. so is vacum caps. if a vacum cap leaks, use a hose clamp or a zip tie.

Just don't use anything that can detach and end up in the floats... IE, don't use silicon out of a tube or goop. Vacuum caps with a zip tie is a good idea.

The reason I don't like screws is that it is breaking up the brittle rubber as you screw it in. These little pieces can end up in the floats or jets, etc causing a rebuild.
