OK, I picked up some permatex ultra copper gasket maker..... Here goes nothin'.

I understand how to seal the carb, but how do I seal the backplate right? I am guessing you unscrew the back plate, lay a bead, and put the backplate back on. What about the pull starter? Any sealant there? What seals where the starter shaft goes through the backplate?

Thanx for all the help man
