Alternate gasket material?

For my case gasket can I make one out of thin cardboard or any household items? Just for short term. Minarelli hybrid 66 cc

Yes. Cardboard wetted in 2t oil will work just fine, even long term


Cereals have excellent thickness for making gaskets out of their boxes.

Make sure you sand off any graphics or printing on the cardboard. Especially if it is the coating like on a cereal box. If you don't, it might not seal right.
