Hello - I need to replace the gasket between the bottom of the cylinder block and the crankcase on my P-55.

Can someone plse tell me the approx. thickness of the gasket. I made a CAD dwg. which, hopefully, is attached.

Thanks

Bob Price

Hi Bob, I use .5 mm for my P55 gaskets as that is the closest I can get to the originals. Have not had any problems.
Cheers,

Dave

Thanks very much Dave -

.5 mm is 0.02 in. nominally: I can get some Vellumoid that is 1/64 in. or 0.016: close enuf.

Cheers
