Default fuel leak

I'm in the process of putting a four barrell holley in. The problem I'm having is that I cant get the included banjo fitting for the fuel to seal right, It has two washers that came with it and no gaskets that came with the carb. Thanks for the help

If it is what I think it is then those "washers" are the gaskets. Put one on each side of the banjo fitting and stick the "bolt" thru. Install. If it still leaks then take it to the store where you bought it and get the proper, new gaskets. Take the carb also.

Thanks for the help and sorry for the delayed response. Ya the washers were the gaskets and the problem was I had them both on one side of the bolt. DOH!!
