carb "spacer" gasket.application?purpose?advantage?
What is the application/purpose/advantage of the carb "spacer" type gasket over the plain single layer thin gasket? I am changing the carb from a walbro to a Kohler Carter # 30 on a K321 engine from a 149,and I am trying to determine which gasket to use.
My K321aqs has the spacer type gasket,but my k241's and k301's have a thin gasket. Thanks.

I have gone both ways with and without the carb spacer and really didn't see any notable difference. I think the pullers run a spacer and it probably makes a difference on a modified motor. I beleive it has something to do with atomizing the fuel but not 100% sure. Sam Mac will know more about this topic I'm sure.

The "thing" that I have always heard, the spacer helps reduce heat to the carb reducing the possibility of boiling the fuel.

That is the best reason to use the spacer.

the reason for the carb spacer for pulling is because the carb vapour locks and wont run.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
