hi guys just a wee question --i have used silicone gasket sealer on magneto casing instead of the normal gasket is this OK kind regards Murray

Yes and no, depending on who you speak to.

I use good quality sanitary silicon to seal the primary chain case on a B40, and have done for years.

Only use a very small bead, whatever size you just thought of was to much !

I always use instant gasket on my rev 4 and rev 3

can you buy 310mls for

My 0,02 penny worth opinion:

The magneto/rotor case side includes the secundary front sprocket and clutch engagement.

For cleaning after som muddy session you might clean up the engine components mentioned

above there too, it is IMHO easier to use a thicker self made gasket that you can use

serveral times as "playing" around with sticky sealing compount stuff.

(Gasket sheets are not expensive)

I use the gasket several times and had no issue so long, if you need a template for

a print out for a recut, (pdf) -> PM

A well greased gasket works well. You can keep re-using for quite a while.

Hello all. On a Sherpa T I have found that if you use a gasket on either the ignition or the primary cases and you hit a rock or log it will split the gasket. I learned this the hard way many years ago. So now I only use Silastic (Silicon). Now if you hit something it tends to just move without breaking the seal. Bully Lover.
