Exhaust Gaskets... Pocket Bike! |
Wed 11 Oct 2006 09:48:21 PM |
Hey,
Just after a couple opinions on a 2 stroke engine's exhaust gasket. Its a 49cc pocket bike that goes like the clappers, but could do better because its got a leaking exhaust gasket. Gasket looks fine but you can feel the ait shooting out the sides. Do you think some standard gasket paper from a local auto shop would do fine on such a small engine? I aint going to the hassle of going to a mini-moto shop and getting some expensive gasket! PFFT! |

Your looking at under £5 for a whole engine gasket kit in the UK.
Hardly seems worth the effort of buying gasket paper and cutting it. |

gasket glue will melt, jsut get some exhasut paste and then you prob wont even need any gasket or jsut keep the one thats in there. that will sort it for sure

Exhaust paste sounds easy. Will pick up a tube today!

What about the spacing between the components?
