gasket question

[stephen12091985]

i ordered a top end gasket set and was wondering what the round metal rings was for?the one inside the cooper one.

Wish i knew. maybe youll figure it out when you replace your old gaskets Idk

 

[blaster20001]

mine where for my head nuts

 

[FlaBlasta]

maybe thats it!

 

[stephen12091985]

no its alot bigger then the head nut.i never took one of those out when i took my head and cylinder and piston out.its the one that sitting inside the cooper one.i was thinking it was for the exhaust gasket maybe?but then was thinking why would they put a gasket for the exhaust in a top end kit.i know the pic i put up is the complete gasket kit just using it for reference

 

[FlaBlasta]

it may not be a major part. if it were then you think anyone with a little general knowledge about engines would even know.

 

[blaster20001]

o thats the copper gasket for the drain bolt

 

[blaster20001]

c mine came with copper 1s for the head nuts but that was athena gasket kit

 

[stephen12091985]

noooooooo its not cooper it shiny metal and its bigger the the drain bolt

 

[blaster20001]

o sorry i read it wrong it looks like the exhaust gasket that sits in the jug

 

[stephen12091985]

look at the one i put the line on

 

[blaster20001]

ya that looks like the exhaust gasket that sit in the jug is it a little thick

 

[stephen12091985]

yea its thick

 

[stephen12091985]

so that mean i gotta take the to bolts that hold the flange thing one and it goes in there?

 

[blaster20001]

thats a exhaust gasket it sits in the head most likely the old 1 is still in the head just pull it out and put the new 1 in
