| Post subject: | Cam Cover Gasket |
I am replacing the cam cover gasket on my 1850 but it seems too wide to fit between the outside lip and the inside one (where the metal bends). I have done this before but can't remember having a problem. I think it was from Rimmers, has anybody else had this, if so does anybody know of another supplier? |

Ah the brothers, best not comment on them.I think it was from Rimmers, has anybody else had this, if so does anybody know of another supplier? You want GEG447, Robsport https://robsport.co.uk/index.php/online ... kets-sealshas it and so does http://www.tdfitchett.co.uk/store/dolom ... 50-geg447/ tdfitchett. Can't comment on the quality, don't have an 1850, but Robsport are my go to supplier. Never had a duff part and they have reasonable postage. It looks cork like the 1500 one, I had to use some sealant to stick it inside the cover to make it fit. Don't know if that would work for the 1850. |

TD Fitchett is another supplier I'd recommend. S&S Preparations are also worth a try. |

The names listed are retailers, there are limited ‘suppliers’ for these items and most source stock from the same places...or from each other. |

I think that I will try trimming the one that I have. |

I needed some bits so I thought that I would get them from Robsport and include a cam cover gasket. Sure enough, as you can see from the photo below, it is thinner. However, as the other photos show, it is too long. Luckily I have found an old gasket in reasonable condition that seems to fit.
