Does your carb retainer have any o-rings on it? If I'm not mistaken, there were two versions of the carb retainer.

The seller hasn't responded to my question, so I think there's no mods other than being a Arrow set (which changes the rod design).... but even if there were mods, I wouldn't chance it. What credentials does that guy have?

My motor has about 2-3 litres on it and i did find the screw a little lose so hopefuly that was the problem but one thing it held it's tune all day and the seeping could be from that as there was minimal dirt on the bearing only on the bottom...

The only part that will fit an xz-b is the rod. Everything will fit a vz-b though.
