Default Brison 3.2 Carb Gaskets

I just had to get new Carb gaskets for the 3.2 Brison, in my Opinion kind of premature to wear these out, who actually should never wear out. I suspect a loose connection between the Carb & Crankcase, even the Bolts were tightened to specs. Anyone else had to get new Gaskets and if so, why??

A lot of fuel has alcohol (ethanol) added today. It's hard on gaskets. Dries them up and makes them shrink.

thanks Rcpilet , I'll buy that explanation with the ethanol, it makes sence. I ordered two new Gaskets from Brison Service in Connecticut. The Guy there,( forgot his Name), seemed very informed with Brison Engines and the Model Industry . Looks like things are looking up for Brison after the bad Episode in Dallas. Personally, I would NOT have another 50 cc or bigger class Engine, the Guy's who make the major components are first in the Class world wide, Stihl Chain Saws is one of the Firms using the same products. Stihl itself is Top in it's Line. Thats good enough for me.
My Son, now stationed at Langley AFB, flies the Brison almost weekly and he reports its getting stronger the more time he logs. I just guess it has between 30 and 50 Hrs Runtime by now. He is really impressed with the performance flying with the CF PT 23x8 Prop.
