Product Description

The 16A48 is a Marvel-Schebler carburetor gasket designed for fuel inlet strainer applications. This cut gasket seals the strainer cover to the carburetor body, preventing fuel leaks during engine operation. Found on piston aircraft engines equipped with Marvel-Schebler carburetors, the gasket maintains pressure integrity in the fuel inlet system.

Installation requires clean mating surfaces and torque specifications per the engine or carburetor maintenance manual. Use non-hardening aviation gasket sealant only if specified by the manufacturer. Proper sealing ensures reliable fuel delivery and system integrity.
