Description
Overview:
The carburettor inlet gasket is a flat, fuel-resistant seal that fits between the carburettor and inlet manifold on Villiers small engines. It restores an airtight joint to maintain correct mixture and vacuum, helping to prevent rough running, hard starting, and loss of power. Precision cut from petroleum-resistant gasket fibre/composite, it tolerates heat, petrol, and oil encountered in normal service. Designed for Villiers MK12 and MK15 units and used across the wider MK series, it follows the original profile for correct port and stud alignment. Suitable for stationary engines used in construction and garden machinery such as mixers, rotavators, mowers, pumps, and generators. Supplied as a direct replacement with OEM reference E10279 to support straightforward maintenance and consistent performance.
Key Features:
- Forms a reliable air- and fuel-tight seal between carburettor and inlet manifold
- Helps stabilise idle, improve starting, and maintain correct fuel mixture
- Petroleum-, oil-, and heat-resistant gasket fibre/composite for durability
- Accurate port and bolt-hole alignment for Villiers MK-series manifolds
- Direct-fit replacement with OEM reference E10279
- Suitable for routine servicing and repair with basic hand tools
- Reduces risk of air leaks that cause hunting and flat spots
- Supports consistent engine output and fuel efficiency
- Flat design for quick installation without modifications
- Ideal to renew whenever the carburettor is removed
Typical Applications:
Used during carburettor removal, refitting, and service on Villiers-powered machinery. Typical equipment includes cement mixers, generators, pumps, plate compactors, rotavators, cultivators, and lawn mowers. Appropriate for workshop overhauls and field repairs to restore correct sealing and running quality on MK-series engines.
