Is there supposed to be two carburetor mounting gaskets, with one between the carburetor and the insulator and one between the insulator and the intake manifold? When I pulled the carb there was not one between the insulator and manifold. At the parts store, one person said two are required, so I assume it may be as stated in my question

I only use one between the insulator and the carburetor. Any gasket you use, inspect and assure yourself that you are not covering any vacuum paths to the carb.

AntiqueMechanic, Thanks for your opinion and the part about lining up the gasket with the carb.
