quick question how to seal gas tank seam on Pro Mac 10-10

[strad]

I had to disassemble the gas tank on the way to going through the saw motor and making sure everything was clean. The original seal is a cork gasket, which of course now won't re-seal (nor did I expect it to!). So the question is, what other means of sealing that seam could I use? Or do you just cut out a new cork gasket out of flat stock?

I had to get one off Ebay. Here's the link http://www.ebay.com/itm/CORK-FUEL-g...939662?hash=item1c6682e90e:g:Y6sAAOSwcu5UTmZJ

I would be leary of NOS gaskets of ebay myself. These things are 30 plus YO and likely brittle and will break if you look at them funny. I personally would try cutting a new one or use permatex or honda/yamabond etc. This has been covered at length before if you do a search.

I bought a nos gasket from eBay from randys engine repair it was a little dirty but still very pliable it worked fine for me I recommend using yamabond for any tank sealing endeavors,
