I am replacing the cylinder base gasket on a '98 ZL 500.
The problem is the original base gasket is made up of 2 gaskets RIVETED together.
The motor is ALL original, never been rebuilt.
I asked my local dealer and he only has the gasket as 1 gasket and not 2 riveted together.
The original gasket is twice as thick as the new gasket (3005-654)
I have attached pictures of what the old gasket looks like.
And what the NEW gasket looks like.
I am not sure what should be used.
1 gasket or 2 gaskets stacked on top of each other like the original one was ?
The arctic cat parts diagram only shows 1 gasket, but the original had 2 that are riveted together.
Does anyone know what should be right to use?
1 gasket or 2 gaskets stacked like the original
The original part # for the gasket is 3005-245
The new replacement part # for that gasket is 3005-654
See attachments for the original 2 gasket riveted type
See attachments for the NEW 1 gasket type --- half the thickness of the old gasket, but made from the same material.
