• Hard starting related to poor carburetor sealing
• Manifold-to-spacer sealing issues on cast iron intake setups

Installation Notes

Clean both mating surfaces before installation and verify that the carburetor, spacer, and manifold surfaces are flat and free of old gasket material. Match the gasket to the correct application notes in the fitment data, especially where the listing specifies carburetor-to-spacer or spacer-to-manifold use with cast iron intake manifolds.

Confirm bolt-hole alignment and intake-port orientation before tightening. For best results, follow the vehicle service manual torque sequence and recheck for vacuum or fuel leaks after startup.
