Specs At A Glance

Good To Know

Q: How do I know if this gasket needs replacement? A: Common signs include oil pooling around the top of the engine or a burning smell coming from the engine bay. Replacing a brittle gasket prevents oil from reaching spark plug tubes or other sensitive components.

Q: Is specific sealant required for this installation? A: While the gasket is designed to seal on its own, many service manuals recommend a small amount of liquid sealant at the corners of the cam caps. Ensure the mating surfaces are completely clean and dry before installing the new rubber seal.

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