Good To Know

Q: Should this gasket be replaced every time the exhaust manifold is removed? A: Yes, gaskets are designed for single-use compression and a fresh one should be fitted each time the manifold is unbolted. Reusing an old gasket risks leaks and uneven sealing at the flange.

Q: Does this gasket require sealant during installation? A: Most installations call for a clean, dry mating surface and proper torque on the manifold fasteners rather than sealant. Always follow the service manual procedure for the specific model.

Slight variation in finish or dimensions may occur between production runs, and fit can depend on serial number, so confirm compatibility before ordering.
