Heat Riser & Air Cleaner Gasket


Recommended Posts

Posted

Gents,

Finally shovelled enough snow away from my '48 P-15 to reinstall the rebuilt carb and thought I'd check the heat riser while I'm there. It has never had a spring but moves freely; problem is I can't see it so I don't know which way to turn it to make it open. If I had a lick of sense I'd simply buy a new spring (which I'll eventually do) but this is just to get me started.

Along with rebuilding the carb I also converted the air cleaner to accept a paper insert, but before reinstalling it I'd like to know what sort of gasket goes between the A\C and the carb. Up to now I've been using a piece of innertube rubber, which works well, but is there a better fix?

As always, thanks for your feedback.

-Randy
