Default Re: Searching for a phenolic carb spacer

Kind of an update on the spacer idea. After I posted this, a gentleman contacted me (can't remember who now....) and offered a phenolic spacer. He had a spare so I got it from him. It's a 1/4 inch spacer and I recently installed it, along with a gasket top and bottom and the GAV still fits and works fine. The temperatures now are in the 40-65 range and there doesn't seem to be a problem but this summer will tell. I am also running Shell premium which is supposed to have less alcohol since we can't buy fuel without alcohol here in south Texas. I am also using MMO at the rate of 4 oz per 10 gallons or so.

I'll try to remember to update this when the weather warms up.
