Title: gasket thickness
Post by: Jonesy on May 30, 2013, 05:06:03 PM

Does anyone have a genuine gasket item No: 12 in the drawing on there spares shelf to measure the thickness of?
 My local yam dealer can't get one, so I want to get the gasket material and do my own. The thickness is critical as it is an integral part of setting the gear backlash

Thanks Eddy.
local auto shop has 0.8mm  but I've a sneaking suspicion it might 0.6mm.
I'll be watching this space
