Rubbers for the air filter on MK2 LC

[Peter Meyer]

I realise that these may not be obtainable but has someone got a viable replacement please?

Hi Peter

A little unsure which item you're referring to.....

Rubber gasket / seal between carbie backplate and bakelite transfer "thing?"
Rubber tube between bakelite transfer "thing" and muffler / filter?
Rubber washers on brackets that mount muffler / filter to cam cover?

The last ones you mention.

Slice up an appropriately sized hose-Salami style!!!

i have an original gasket somewhere and it looks like a piece of leather and about 1/4 " thick.will try to find it and get a pic up.
i think it's this one

Rubber gasket / seal between carbie backplate and bakelite transfer "thing?"

Hi Martin, not that one, the ones that go between the muffler and the brackets. I think I may have to raid my son's go kart rubber collection. Cutting up a hose doesn't quite do it I suspect even though it may be a very practical solution.............

There's probably a suitably sized grommet available from Auto-one or Repco. I use standard grommets of a suitable size, sliced in half because they're too fat.

Good idea. New set of plugs made a world of difference. I'll explore my gokart rubbers. I'm sure there will be something there also.
