85 Honda 250SX gasket question

[sg5492]

Does anybody have a part number or a place that I can go to to buy a gasket that's between the carb and engine? It's the one with 2 bolts that bolts directly to the engine. I've searched and can't seen to find it.

Thanks in advance!

I read that as being the intake. As far as I know, they aren't available new. You will have to look for a used one.

I believe they are the same as the one from a 250es, i know i have one of those some where, ill look around to see if i can find it, ill give it to you if you pay for shipping (assuming i can even find it).

Thanks!
I think this is the gasket I need. I can only find it in the top end gasket kit.

i thought you were referring to the intake boot....

The intake boot only uses an O-ring , look at the link I provided .
The picture your showing is the timing tensioner gasket .

Now I see what you're talking about and I'm not even sure this was put together right from the guy I bought it from or maybe even before him, who knows. I'll go by the numbers of the diagrams so you can see what I have:
#8 Carb insulator has O ring #22 which I'm sure I need and I also have carb insulator #9 but only has an O ring on one side of it. When I pulled this apart months ago, the 2 O ring pieces were together and siliconed. And the gasket I referenced earlier was on the head. Now do I need both carb insulators and if so, O ring #23 is no longer available, so would #22 work on the #8 carb insulator? I can try to load pics later.

Most auto parts stores sell gasket paper, or a piece of cereal box cardboard is often used...
