I recommend the thicker cork gaskets that Mark (914 Rubber) makes.

I just smear a bit of hi-temp grease on both sides of the gaskets. The grease helps to keep them in place, as well as keeping oil from seeping through.

Hi Mark, hows things going at Payson. Thanks for the info. One day I'll take a trip to your neck of the woods. PM me your phone# and address. I'm still learning a lot on the 914. I now know how to adjust the valves correctly. Live and learn the hard way, but it wasn't as hard as I thought it would be. Just a PITA for a 62 yr old guy under that teener. Hope to here from you.
