Troubleshooting & FAQ
How do I confirm this gasket fits my engine?
The best method is to compare your old part number to the ones listed in our Part Number Matrix. Also, check your engine model against the compatibility tables. If you are still unsure, inspect the product photos and compare them to your existing gasket.
Should I use sealant with this gasket?
Generally, these gaskets are designed to be installed dry without any additional sealant. Applying sealant can sometimes cause the gasket to slip or fail prematurely. Always follow your engine manufacturer's service manual for specific recommendations.
What are the signs of a failing exhaust elbow gasket?
Common symptoms include visible water leaks around the manifold/riser joint (especially when the engine is running), rust stains originating from the joint, engine overheating, or an unusual amount of steam from the exhaust.
How often should this gasket be replaced?
Replacement intervals depend heavily on usage (freshwater vs. saltwater) and operating hours. It is standard practice to replace gaskets whenever the exhaust riser or elbow is removed for inspection or replacement, typically every 3-5 years in saltwater environments.
Is this a single gasket or a pair?
This product is sold as a package of two gaskets, as indicated in the "What's in the Box" section.
