Making your own gaskets

McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
I need to make a set of carb top gaskets any pointers as to how thick a sheet of suitable gasket paper I need ?

Links to suitable sized paper would come in handy , unless anyone has some proper  left over gaskets they want to part with ?

Oddjob:
I'd say 2-3mm Ted, they are fairly thick as standard.

TrickyMicky:
You can buy genuine Flexoid paper on Fleabay. Not too sure about the suggested 2-3mm thickness, that does seem awfully thick. Having said which, I admit to never having had the tops off of my carbs, so quite happy to be proved wrong. Mike.

smoothoperator:
I may have some of these gaskets Ted, I’ll have a look.
