Title: Intake Manifold and Carburettor Gaskets Post by: Beckerman67 on 24 July, 2023, 06:56:41 AM Just about to refit the intake manifold, the carbs mounting plate and the carbs.
My question regards the gasket seals as shown in the attached diagram. I seem to remember that a smear of copper silicone is recommended as well as new gaskets but I can't remember if this applies to all the gaskets? I'm guessing the mounting plate to the intake manifold? Can someone please advise. Thanks in advance.
