Hey folks,
Started working on my 550 gas again. Swapped on a brand new carb, (Zenith), and it still will not idle unless the choke is 3/4 out. (had same problem with old carb too...amongst others.) Anyway, I had decided to pull the intake and exhaust manifolds. I am going to magnaflux the intake and check for cracks (I suspect the gaskets, but going to check anyway.) My exhaust manifold is broken big time, so I am going to build a tube header for it while I am at it so I can quiet the little cuss up.
Question: Where can I get intake and exhaust gaskets for a 550 gas? I do not want to buy a whole gasket set, since I am not going to over haul it. I seem to be seeing that I will have to buy gasket materiel and gut my own out. I can do this, but I thought I would ask to see if there is a source for them first.
Thanks guys! Now I can go fire the 88 up and get back to fencing!
