Guys,
Can anyone help me help the nuffies at Ripco with the Part numbers for the Sierra 1.3 Carby Base mounting gaskets. Above and below the small alloy block?
Even better, anyone know where I can get a set from from anyone on here?
Cheers
Matt

The gaskets are normally part of the carby rebuild kits.
You could try a carby specialist?
I cut my own gasket for my 1.3 carby a couple of years ago.
Not hard, you just have to be patient.

whatever they call em down your way, I bought 4 off the shelf for something
like $4.40 each, couldn't tell ya the part numbers till the morning though.
