Good To Know

Q: What does this gasket seal? A: It sits between the reed valve assembly and the engine to keep the intake airtight. A failed gasket can cause lean running and hard starting.

Q: Should I replace it during a rebuild? A: Yes, intake gaskets are commonly replaced whenever the reed cage is removed. Reusing an old gasket risks air leaks.

Slight variation in finish or dimensions may occur between production runs, and fit can depend on serial number, so confirm compatibility before ordering.
