Description
Your carburetor is leaking gasoline or drawing in air? Then it’s high time for a fresh float chamber gasket. This high-quality gasket has been specially designed for the Bing carburetor models 17 and 18 (particularly the cat versions). It ensures that the connection between the carburetor housing and the float chamber remains completely sealed.
An leaky carburetor not only leads to unsightly stains on the ground, but it also affects the performance of your engine. With this precisely fitting gasket, you can make sure that the fuel stays exactly where it belongs. The material is particularly gasoline-resistant and durable, so you can enjoy some peace of mind after installation.
Important information and tips for installation
To ensure your repair on the Bing carburetor goes perfectly, we’ve put together some useful tips for you:
Fit accuracy: This gasket is precisely tailored to the contours of the Bing 17 and 18 carburetors. Please check in advance whether your carburetor is indeed from this series (the number is usually printed on the side of the housing).
Cleanliness is key: Before you insert the new gasket, you should thoroughly clean the sealing surfaces on the carburetor and the float chamber. Old gasket residues can be carefully removed with a plastic scraper.
No force: Tighten the screws of the float chamber evenly in a cross pattern. Over-tightening can compress the gasket or even warp the housing.
Check-up: Take the opportunity, when the chamber is already open, to check if the float is free to move and that the needle valve closes cleanly.
Storage: If you keep a gasket in reserve, store it in a dark and cool place to maintain the material’s elasticity.
Make your carburetor fit again and ensure a clean idle and full performance!
