Continental io360 spider valve gasket

Post by yanknbank »

Can anyone point me to a part number, or where to get the gasket for the io360 flow divider (spider valve). I'd like to have my mechanic help take it apart and clean it. I don't see any reference to the gasket in any manuals or online parts. Rather not make a gasket for this application.

It's not a gasket, it's a diaphragm. The shut off valve. They do come apart and the diaphragm is not sealed, so it usually peals off easy. If you damage it you'll have to send it out for overhaul. Any A&P should know this. I may have a flow divider if you damage yours.

Thank you. Looking at the parts sandwiched together, I figured the orange layer was a gasket. Guessing the diaphragm acts as a seal then.

Thanks again.
