    Default Hinomoto E15D tractor head casket.

    My son has a 28 year old Hinomoto E15D two cylinder tractor. It is in dire need of a new head casket. I have been surfing the net for two hours without getting a satisfactory result. Can anyone point me in the right direction to get a new head casket please?

    Thanks
    Jim

    If you don't get any closer leads, the go to the Gaskets-to-Go Custom Gaskets-Home Page.
    You can download a special grid pdf file there and print it. You then write your details and any other information about materials and thicknesses on the paper, sit your buggered gasket (cleaned as well as possible) on a scanner glas and lie the grid paper on top, then scan the lot. You then e-mail the scan to John at gaskets-to-go and about a week or so later (sometimes longer) your gasket will arrive in the mail. At their end they reproduce the e-mailed file to compensate for any distortion in the process - which give them an accurate shape and size of the gasket.
    Bloody brilliant setup! I've had runs of gaskets made there by John for vintage bikes and supplied the (tiny) world enthusiasts' market. At a price well below aftermarket prices - if they were available.
    Cheers,
    Joe

    are there more letters and numbers before the E15D? I can find some parts listed for some tractors but I suspect a bit more info would be needed to get the right part. Year of manufacture as on the boiler plate would be ace too. If we could get a bit more detailed info together I could probably get some help to ask one of the sellers over here.
