Status: offline 		Is there supposed to be a gasket there? There isn't on this engine... is this the source of my air leak? What can I use to seal it? Silicone?

Status: online 		Most two strokes do not have a muffler gasket. The original Tower 46's did but I don't think they come with a gasket anymore?

put a little on the seams and retighten, you have a clean system no oil leaks running mostly diesel conversions this eliminates a mess of any oil ooze around the engine or muffle seams works well on any engine glow, diesel, 4 strk to keep things dry, also a small split washer under the muffler bolts will keep it tight martin
