One problem after another
From
leaking air
To
Leaking oil
Now
leaking gas .... curse my life

Refer to pic..... on spi throttle
It is leaking from the fuel delivery pipe

Is this just a simple tighten job ?
Or is there an o-ring inside that might be worn causing it to leak ???

You can try a simple tighten but i'd open it and change the viton ring. In any case it's not a big job.

As the captain says, but I also use PTFE tape on the threads as an extra precaution.
