I have worked on jetted tubs for 5 years and have yet seen a screw in plug replacement for the jet. It would be very expensive to fill the holes and refinish it. You may want to look into tub liners, they to are very expensive. I guess it depends on how long you plan to live in that house. If they are not leaking just use it as a tub and don't use the jets.

How to adjust carb settings

Hi Charlie.<br />Operations to be performed depends on how much tuning is needed.<br />Carb setting regulates the ratio between air and fuel in the mixture aspired into the cylinders.Optimal air/fuel ratio is usually around 14(air) to 1(fuel). I illustrated the complete job with cleanup and jet replacement and adjustment. In some situation you do not need to perform complete tuning, which involves taking apart the carburetor. In that case perform basic regulation setup using the two adjustment screws at one side of the carb. Adjustment simple procedure starts from part 2/Adjustment. A good approach is first doing adjustment using idle and thickener screws. Then do the whole tune up if the simple adjustment does not work.<br />The complete tuning is based on carburettor cleanup, regulation of main jet and idle jet and needle setup.<br /><br />Part 1 : Complete tuning and cleanup:<br />1. Take apart the carburettor,<br />2. Undo the float chamber(6 in diag) held by screws (26 in diag).<br />3. Clean bowl with with carb cleaner (put a lot of it in the bow, wait a bit and dispose it-finish the job with a cloth if needed) . Clean floats (nr.4) and other parts using carb cleaner and cloth.<br />4. Use a flat screwdriver to remove the main jet screw (placed in the chamber, held by big golden screw, goes between the floats). Spray the main jet. You must be able to see through it.<br />5. Use the carb cleaner to clean the accelerating pump and all the other parts inside the part. Needle and small parts must be cleaned. Clean the idle jet, which is the smaller golden screws. If you have a compressor blow into the jets (you can blow them even without compressor, but follow H&S).<br />6. If possible replace main and idle jets. Sometimes you may like to replace the jet with a bigger one to get a richer mixture.<br />7. Adjust the needle if needed. A lower needle settings means a richer mixture.<br />8. Remove idle adjustment screw (7) and main adjustment screw(31), clean them screw them back in without tightening and perform part 2. Leave the screws about one and half turn from all way in.<br /><br />Part 2: Tuning and minor cleanup - Here you mainly operate on idle and air (thickener) adjustment screws (8 and 12 in diag)- Start from here, if this does not work, do part one:<br /><br />1) If the engine runs start from idle adjustment: screw or unscrew the idle regulator to adjust the idle speed, the screw is placed to one side of the carburetor and has a spring (part 12).<br />Keep idle least slightly higher than the minimum needed. Example, if the engine stays on slightly below 1000 rpm, set idle to a bit higher with engine revving above 1000 rpm.<br /><br />2) The thickener, placed near that of the minimum screw regulates the air flow. Tighten the screw and unscrew 2 turns from all the way in. Do regulation from this position. <br /><br />Here carburetor diagram and part list. The diagram is taken from service manual. The manual for Lifan 150 (does not include carb setting) has been uploaded here:<br /><br />http://www.mediafire.com/?o3r8x2ujrdbfb6o

My jet tub on 2nd floor leaks when water goes over the jets. There is water damage on ceiling in living room downstairs. We now only use it to shower with no leakage. Can I simply shoot silicone into...

The problem is likely the hoses behind the jets. It depends how much of a fix you want and if you intend to use the jets at a later date? If you gave the bath a good clean, you could stick duct tape over the jets as a temporary solution. If you want to use the jets again, filling them with silicone will make that impossible.

One other solution would be to make an inspection hatch in the ceiling of the living room and fix it from underneath. Cut a neat hole in the drywall making sure that you are between the floor joists. Fix the tub and screw the drywall back in place to wooden blocks screwed to the side of the joists. Then put decorative molding to cover the cut lines. Paint the water damage with PVA Wood glue as a sealer, let it dry and then paint.

Housing for jet is broken on spurlin tub

You can probably get one at your local pool and spa supply. If you do not have an acess door or access panells to that side of the tub, then you may have to take the tub out of its frame. You will first have to TURN OFF ANY POWER SUPPLY to the pump and any other device such as an optional heater etc. Then turn the water supply valves off and disconnect them where they exit the valve.Disconnect the drain by unscrewing the inner drain strainer where the water runs out of the tub and the screws from the trip lever (that works the stopper) and pull it completely out. Remove any caulking around the tubs rim and lift the tub from its frame. Make repairs and replace in this same order.

Replace pump

Six (6) on board/top screws approx. Two (2) in front near nozzle area and four (4) under water resevoir tank. Engage handle release and lie handle down on floor and take out screws and save (of course) You will need to also unscrew clear water cap from top of on board unit and save and make certain you retain process to put back into position..(cap/spinner/small screen /pin up) Now you have access to the pump/motor, drive belts, etc. Unscrew appropriate screws and detach water lines and note replacement points. from pump near front right area of unit. Good luck!

I have a Delta push down bathtub drain stop, but it is worn and does not stop the water. It does not unscrew as far as I can see how do I get it apart without removing the tube which I can not do?

There are two types of tub drain stoppers for the delta brand - lift & turn and toe tap.

Lift and Turn:
The lift & turn stopper for the bathtub unscrews counterclockwise while in the full up position.

Toe Tap:
The toe tap stopper does also but if the cap may unscrew from it before the entire stopper comes out. In that case, there is a nut that is now exposed and can be accessed to unscrew the assembly.

If either of these is "spinning" without unscrewing, the threads are stripped and you would need to exert upward pressure while unscrewing in hopes of uncoupling this from the bath waste. If that doesn't work you would have to unscrew the bath waste flange from the drain pipe.
This will require access under the tub. I hope this answer the question for you. Thank you for using FIXYA. Jeff

Hot tub will not stay warm

You must keep your circulator pump running if you want the water to stay hot. The water is being heated inside the pipes but it isn't getting circulated until you turn on the jets pump.
