Fitting solex carbs. Any sealant required on gaskets?

  1. Hi all, I am fitting my Soles carbs on my bus. I have new gaskets but I understand the torque for the bolts on the manifold is quite low. Are the gaskets sufficient alone or is any other sealant required?

    I've seen it with and without but it should be fine without.

    i have none on mine. I think its the norm. If you have a rubber gasket you wont need one.

    Gaskets are for sealing, sealants for damaged or missing gaskets
