If you check around with some of the oil well engine overhaul companies down in Oklahoma, you can find an original head gasket but you should use the crush washer with it.Īnother comment is the Witte CD engine governor does not do well at holding cycles steady. The only draw back, minor, is it is thicker which lowers the compression ratio a little. It does not have a fire ring because it can withstand the temperature and pressure.

This is not needed with the graphoil gasket.Īrrow engine sells the new style gasket, Graphite/oil. It is not readily available, but with some searching it can be found. It was installed in the recess in the head and the cylinder sleeve sealed against it. There was also a crush washer seal used with this gasket. The orginal head gasket was manufactured from asbestos and copper composition. Re: Re: Re: Witte Stationary Engine in reply to John, 01-27-1999 02:36:45
