Description
Overview:
This Set of Gaskets for Stihl FS38 is a Genuine Stihl Part designed to restore correct sealing across key engine joints on small two-stroke machines. Manufactured from fuel-, oil- and heat-resistant composite materials, the gaskets help maintain compression, prevent air and fuel leaks, and support clean running. It is suitable for Stihl grass trimmers and brushcutters such as the FS 38 and FS 45, and is ideal when servicing the carburettor, intake or exhaust joints, or after signs of gasket wear. Using the correct OEM pattern helps protect engine performance, starting reliability and longevity. Supplied under OEM number 4140 007 1600, this matched set offers the right profiles and port cut-outs for a precise fit, making routine maintenance and rebuilds straightforward and consistent.
Key Features:
- Genuine Stihl part for assured fit and material quality (OEM 4140 007 1600)
- Forms tight, accurate seals to maintain compression and fuel/air mixture integrity
- Helps prevent hard starting, erratic idle, lean running and fuel seepage
- Durable materials withstand petrol, two-stroke oil and operating temperatures
- Cut to exact OEM patterns to match ports, screw holes and mating faces
- Supports smoother running, better throttle response and reduced exhaust blow-by
- Useful during carburettor service, intake/muffler refits, or top-end refreshes
- Straightforward to fit with standard hand tools; no special equipment required
- Supplied as a coordinated set to avoid mismatched or worn individual gaskets
- Suitable for regular maintenance schedules to extend engine life
Typical Applications:
Replacing perished or damaged gaskets during routine servicing, carburettor rebuilds, intake or silencer removal, or after overheating events. Useful when resolving air leaks that cause poor starting, unstable idle, loss of power or increased fuel consumption on Stihl handheld trimmers and hedge trimmers. Recommended whenever mating faces are disturbed to ensure reliable resealing.
