I needed a Carburetor to Tank gasket as well as a Carburetor to Engine gasket and didn't want to drive 20 miles roundtrip to get them. So, I used 30lb roofing paper (the thicker one) which is nothing more than paper impregnated with tar and works fine on this older 5 HP Briggs & Stratton side shaft engine mounted on a leaf vacuum. I've done this many times before on various engines;and use a small ball peen hammer to peck ~~~lightly~~~around the edge of the carb so as to crimp the paper showing where to cut the edges, then do the same for the holes and use a razor blade or sharp knife to cut out the holes. Takes a little time, but will work in a pinch. Works just as well on the oil pan gaskets.
