Hello,
does someone know what material the valve chamber cover gasket is made of and how thick its should be?
Regards from Holland,

Hi
The gasket should be cork. if you are making one i would say somewhere around 1/8th to 3/16th of an inch if the plate is true and not bowed / bent

. I made one for mine and its a bit thicker than 1/4 inch. The face surfaces where pitted, and I wanted to make sure it squashed up really well to seal. Plus it was a left over off cut from another job, so it was free

and it worked good

.
Regards Robert

Hello Paul,

We made ours from thick gasket paper. Little fluid gasket and its tight.
