Making a gasket? - JTaylor2005 - 01-03-2015
Hey guys if I have some gasket paper can I make a gasket for the inlet elbow? I took mine off and now its leaking and I thought maybe I could make one?

Yeah, sure.

yeah, you can do.. A very thin smear of instant gasket on both sides won't hurt but buying the correct gasket is certainly the better option

Guys guys guys, making gaskets aint that hard or a PITA...tippy-tap a spanner around the edge
cuts it a piece of piss and its loads cheaper

Lol I would have, had they been open! Like a numpty I went down 30mins late!! Bell end ain't I, said on Google it was open til 5... But not parts counter so....I made my own and did it Sunday/yesterday...so far no boost leaks bit they will appear in time. One of the studs on inlet manifold is shite, gotta get a helicoil kit soon
can't believe I've never owned a set.I mean *bet, bloody phone! I hate tapatalk too
Besides, I couldn't find gasket paper from any of my locals that were open so I used copper silicon and a divider from a folder
pikey cheap...'cept the silicon
