 Post subject: Another asbestos question
PostPosted: Thu Jan 27, 2000 9:01 am 

Was the "gasket" that is around the smoke box door, on the very front of the engine, made of asbestos? Ive seen it on restored engines and it kinda looks like fiberglass webbing, I was wondering what is used now.<br>Thanks<br>Alan<br>

The gasket stuff used on woodstove doors glued into place with hi temp gasket gunk works pretty well. <p>Dave<br>
