Good To Know
Q: Why is the tappet cover gasket prone to leaking on these engines? A: Over time, the constant thermal cycles of the diesel engine cause the factory rubber to harden and shrink, resulting in oil seeping down the side of the block.
Q: Are the bolt grommets absolutely necessary during installation? A: Yes, replacing the sealing grommets with the gasket is critical because they prevent oil from weeping past the mounting bolts.
Slight variation in finish or dimensions may occur between production runs, and fit can depend on serial number, so confirm compatibility before ordering.
