Default Gasket material

I have some 1/16 cork gasket sheets at home. I am needing the carb to
gas tank and carb to engine gaskets. Can I just make some out of this
material or will it not work because it is a little thicker than the
origional? Or should I use RTV instead of silicone?


Cork and old-school Permatex. No RTV, no silicone.

I appreciate any help. I have 2 tillers I am tryign to get running so
I can put them up for spring.
