Best way to remove engine casing gasket?

Are you talking about the wire wheel?

Why is he crazy? He wants to compare your wire wheel to something.

Hell you love pictures better than everyone on this board so get on it

I use either a gasket scraper or the same thing raffa posted. Well not the EXACT same thing but a 90 degree die grinder with one of those pads on it.

Yea, why is that so crazy edog? I want to see what you mean by FINE because I have a fine wire wheel and to me it's still too course to use on the casing.

.......and like DC says, your a picture freak so I'd figure you would jump at the oppertunity to clickity-click!

Gasket scraper, that's a tool with about 3/4 to an inch wide blade with a screw driver type of handle on it, is that correct?

Can you get them in all kinds of different widths?

The raffa tool and your grinder sound great but it's not all that often I take motors apart. What other use do they have, if there are quite a few, that may make it more attractive to me for shelling out the money.

I just don't to pay 70-80 bucks for a tool I might use twice or once a year, that's why the scraper seems more the hot set up for me.

i used a die grinder with a softer pad. came off of my 200x no problem. just dont push down too hard, im might wear a low spot in your case.

Gasket scrapers are nice because they have a long thin handle and a short wide scraping piece. A regular wood chisel does the trick especially if you buy the gasket remover - I think the one I use is Permatex
