I took my my 1.5 to 1 tranny apart to put in a new front seal, when I took the front pump off I noticed there was no gasket between the case and pump face. I bought a whole gasket and seal kit and the only gasket that fits it rubber and is almost .100 thick. Is that the correct one?

I think he my be a closet Mastercrafter, cause thier club doesnt have helpful forums lol,
it is a rubber (buna) sqaure cut ring that seals the pump to the front cover and it is probably .100 thick...never measured one Kap, maybe a pro-star or stars and stripes ------------- "the things you own will start to own you" |

lilsumo,
Tell us more about yourself. There's nothing but "not given" and "unknown" in your profile. Are you really a "closet mastercrafter" like Eric thinks? Don't worry as we do have a few MC owners here. They do come over for help and we don't mind. Welcome and BTW, how long has MC used a "Velver" drive? I've never heard of that brand before. Here's the link to Eric just incase you need him. http://www.fantasticfinishmarine.com - Fantastic Finish Marine ------------- /diaries/details.asp?ID=1622" rel="nofollow - 54 Atom /diaries/details.asp?ID=2179" rel="nofollow - 77 Tique 64 X55 Dunphy Keep it original, Pete < |

I think most of the MC owners on Lanier are either in my boat or watching us go by. <---I didn't really say that.  ------------- http://correctcraftfan.com/diaries/details.asp?ID=2331&sort=&pagenum=12&yrstart=1986&yrend=1990" rel="nofollow - 1988 BFN-sold "It's a Livin' Thing...What a Terrible Thing to Lose" ELO |

Link test good lilsumo, Unlike the MC site, we have all the good stuff! Here's the Velver drive manual in our reference section. http://www.correctcraftfan.com/Downloads/Velvet_Service_Manual.pdf - manual It has pictures and does show the square cut "O" ring front pump gasket. Now, where did the old one go???? ------------- /diaries/details.asp?ID=1622" rel="nofollow - 54 Atom /diaries/details.asp?ID=2179" rel="nofollow - 77 Tique 64 X55 Dunphy Keep it original, Pete < |

OK you caught me, I was trying to lay low and slip in under the radar. :)
I have a 1989 mastercraft Tristar 190 with a 351W and a 1.5 to1 powerslot velvet drive tranny. This is my first boat and it needs a lot of TLC. Trying to load a pic, but need to shrink it down in size first. Thanks for any help and please don't kick me out of the forums to quickly, :) let me hang around a little. LOL |
