Justintoxicated Posted February 1, 2004 Report Posted February 1, 2004 Is it ok to re-use Reed gaskets or should I replace them? I have an extra set. Quote
SICK BOY Posted February 1, 2004 Report Posted February 1, 2004 Those gaskets are cheap,so I would just replace them to be on the safe side.But if you need to,I think as long as the old ones look good they could probley be reused. Quote
boonman Posted February 2, 2004 Report Posted February 2, 2004 I would not re-use them. Do you really want to risk an air leak that could destroy your motor in very short time? Quote
gumby Posted February 2, 2004 Report Posted February 2, 2004 but if u reuse them can u coat them with rtv or something Quote
boonman Posted February 2, 2004 Report Posted February 2, 2004 Why bother? They are stupid cheap..... Quote
Justintoxicated Posted February 3, 2004 Author Report Posted February 3, 2004 I'll just use the spares I have then, thanks. Quote
Aussie Quad Racer Posted February 3, 2004 Report Posted February 3, 2004 re use them. i have never replaced em and never had a problem. Who cares how cheep they are, if there is no tears in them then reuse them Quote
boonman Posted February 3, 2004 Report Posted February 3, 2004 I take it you have never had an airleak aussie? Man. I myself would never be willing to take that chance again....... Quote
Aussie Quad Racer Posted February 3, 2004 Report Posted February 3, 2004 no never had an air leak and had my bike for over 3 years. its not hard to look at them and say yes or no to if you can reuse them or not. Quote
Justintoxicated Posted February 3, 2004 Author Report Posted February 3, 2004 well I guess I might a well replace them since I have spares, I'll toss the 3 used (non-ripped) ones I have in a zip lock for backup. Quote
