I am relatively new to car care and I own a 30 year old mobile home. Ford engine. I have just re-done the gaskets on the carburettor as per the instructions in the manual. What I want to know is if I need to apply any type of sealant to the gaskets before I place them. I have not found any "how to" page which says this is necessary but I have found nothing which says don't do it either. Thank you.

I really advise against doing that yourself. Just replacing gaskets isn't going to repair anything. There are many adjustments and calibrations that have to be performed in rebuilding a carb. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional.

Gasoline and silicone don't go well together. Since we volunteer our time and knowledge, we ask for you to please follow up when a problem is resolved.
