Bad rubber pads are best in rebuild kits

The pads in this kit are terrible. I put them on a 1976 Evinrude 85hp 3 weeks ago. So I just need shell spacers. After cleaning the carburetor and installing gaskets I deactivated the boat and the boat ran great. It's been 2.5 weeks since I started the boat, today I tried to pull it out but it won't start. I spray starting fluid in the smoke machine and it starts at high idle but won't start by itself and won't idle at normal. I check as usual: ignition compression of the fuel pump. No questions. I go home and disassemble the carburetors and the bowl gaskets are totally deformed. They are cracked and sucked into the carburetor jets because excess rubber is squeezed out when they are tightened. I cannot recommend these rubber pads. The rest of the kit worked perfectly.

Pros
  • Confident
Cons
  • Out of style
