Yamaha - Float Chamber Gasket - Carburetor Sealing Component - 69W-14384-00-00

Overview

When a carburetor starts leaking or running uneven, it’s often something simple like a worn gasket. This one seals the float chamber so fuel stays contained and the carb can meter it properly. Once it flattens out or gets brittle, you’ll start seeing leaks or rough performance pretty quickly. It’s a small, inexpensive part, but it’s key to keeping your engine running clean and steady.

Key Features

• OEM Precision Fit – Matches Yamaha specifications for correct alignment and sealing.
• Fuel-Resistant Material – Built to handle constant fuel exposure and engine heat.
