Installation Notes

  1. Ensure the engine is off and cool. Disconnect the battery and fuel line.
  2. Place a rag under the carburetor to catch any spilled fuel.
  3. Carefully remove the screws securing the float bowl to the carburetor body.
  4. Gently detach the float bowl and remove the old gasket. Clean the mating surfaces of both the bowl and the carburetor body, ensuring they are free of old gasket material and debris.
  5. Position the new gasket in the groove of the float bowl or on the carburetor body.
  6. Reinstall the float bowl, ensuring the gasket is seated correctly. Tighten the screws evenly in a crisscross pattern to the manufacturer's recommended torque.
  7. Reconnect the fuel line and battery. Prime the fuel system and check for any leaks around the float bowl before starting the engine.

Troubleshooting & FAQ

How do I know if this gasket fits my engine?

The best way to confirm fitment is by matching your existing part number to one of the OEM or aftermarket cross-references listed in the Part Number Matrix. While it fits many Johnson/Evinrude models, checking the number is essential.

What are common signs of a failing float bowl gasket?

Symptoms include visible fuel leakage from the carburetor, a strong smell of gasoline around the engine, difficulty starting, rough idling, or stalling. These issues occur because a bad seal disrupts the fuel-air mixture.

Can I reuse my old gasket after cleaning the carburetor?

No. Gaskets are single-use components that compress and deform to create a seal. Reusing an old gasket will likely result in fuel leaks and poor engine performance. Always install a new one whenever the float bowl is removed.

What is the recommended replacement interval for this gasket?

There is no fixed interval. The gasket should be replaced whenever the carburetor is serviced or if signs of leakage or deterioration appear. It's good practice to have a spare on hand for routine maintenance.

Is any sealant required with this gasket?

No, this gasket is designed to create a seal on its own. Applying sealant can cause it to swell or degrade, and excess sealant can break off and clog carburetor passages, leading to engine problems.

OEM vs. Aftermarket?

This listing is an aftermarket replacement (not OEM). Built to OEM-level specifications with comparable materials. Manufactured in an ISO 9002 facility, batch-inspected for consistency.
