Hi, I have my first RB engine and it is an RB X-12 with aluminum slide carb on it. My problem is that I bought it almost brand new but used from someone and did not get any manual so I don't know what parts it is supposed to have or not have. I have an air leak and I think I have found the source but don't know how to fix it. When running I sprayed some WD-40 down on the turbo plug and it started bubbling as if from an air leak. I tighten the head bolts as much as I could but the leak is still there. I took the head off and there is no gasket between the bottom of the head and the top of the turbo plug base. Now since I don't have a manual I don't know for sure that there is supposed to be one or not. Can anyone help me? Thanks, Don...

Turbo glowplugs do not use a gasket. However if you are speaking of the gasket which needs to be between the combustion chamber and the sleeve, this is an aluminum gasket and so very hard to see on the combustion chamber.
