Sorry, I couldn't help myself. I run the thick gasket whenever possible. It helps sheild the carburetor from heat and keep fuel issues down. With this crappola ethanol gas, you need all the help you can get. Something like this along WITH the thick gasket would be good, too. Thin gasket on the intake, shield then thick gasket. At least that's how I would do it.
