DCNF 40 carburetor base plate gasket
I'm tying to find out if there should be a gasket between the intake manifold and the carburetor base plate spacer. I've seen diagrams where there is a gasket between the intake manifold and base plate spacer and another gasket between the base plate spacer and carburetor and other diagrams that only show a gasket between the carburetor and base plate spacer. Which is correct? My old fiber base plate spacers have molded to the shape of the intake manifold and carbs because no gaskets were used? I will assume that if gaskets are used on both sides of the base plate spacer, the gaskets will mold to the shape of the intake manifold and bottom of the carb and the spacer will be more "reusable" since they are not cheap. What setup are others using? Thanks, Ben.
