Cylinder Base Gasket
Install new base gasket.
NOTE:
The general procedure is to install a new
gasket of the same thickness. However, if you do
not know the gasket thickness that was installed
or if a crankshaft and/or crankcase repair or re-
placement was involved, refer to the COMBUS-

properly determine the required gasket thickness.
Five thicknesses of cylinder base gaskets are
available for a precise adjustment of the squish
gap.
To identify gasket thickness, refer to the identifi-
cation holes on the gasket.
