Pierburg Carb Rebuild Kit

Hi everyone,

I'm having fun servicing the carb but have a couple of questions.

In the kit there is a gasket for the carb to manifold. However, there is a 5mm spacer inbetween. Is it: carb/spacer/gasket/manifold or is it carb/gasket/spacer/manifold? There was no gasket when i took it off - must re-check this though!

There is in the kit a large rubber o-ring. Looking over the carb it seems it is either for the choke pull-down diaphragm or the secondary throttle diaphragm. Which one and how do you open it?

Cheers

If it were me, I'd make a second gasket from gasket paper and go for:

carb/gasket/spacer/gasket/manifold :D

If you get stuck, a cereal box will make a gasket in a situation like that.
