The intake gasket is a genuine item that is supplied by the original equipment manufacturer for use with Echo chainsaws and backpack blowers.

4) Removed the old gaskets and discarded them.
5) Cleaned air filter housing.
6) Reassembled the air filter housing and carburetor to the engine intake by first installing the throttle linkage to the carburetor and making sure that the proper new gasket was on each side of the carburetor. Note: the front and rear gaskets are not identical.

Removed old carburetor, fuel lines, gaskets, filter and spark plug, replaced with new. Set carb high & low jets, started, fine tuned. Blower runs great!
