I order up some replacement intake gaskets for my retro fit of the D-Jet back onto my 2.0l from Webers. My question is about the plastic intake gaskets and the addition of sealant or paper gaskets to go with them. The replacements look to be plastic phenolic with out paper on each side like i have seen and used in the past. Do I need to add the paper gaskets with the new phenolics? I have used aviation sealant in the past and was successfully sealing the IDF manifolds. Any advise would be appreciated
Best Regards -Robert |

I made my own paper gaskets from gasket material from my FLAPS.
Cut the holes for the bolts and sandwiched the paper between the 2 spacers and bolted together. Used a razor knife to cut to shape. Took about 15 minutes to make 4 gaskets. Attached image(s)

I remember McMark saying the few sets he ordered from a vendor came without the paper on the gaskets.
Many years ago they used to come with the paper - things might be changing depending on the vendor. |
