What’s in the Box

  • 2 x Exhaust Elbow Gasket (3850496, 3863191)

Installation Notes

  1. Ensure the engine is completely cool and disconnect the battery for safety.
  2. Drain coolant from the exhaust manifold if required by your service manual.
  3. Carefully loosen and remove the bolts securing the exhaust elbow to the manifold.
  4. Remove the old gasket. Be prepared for it to be brittle or adhered to the metal.
  5. Thoroughly clean both mating surfaces. Use a plastic scraper and appropriate solvent to remove all old gasket material and corrosion.
  6. Position the new gasket, ensuring all bolt holes line up perfectly.
  7. Re-attach the exhaust elbow and tighten the bolts in a crossing pattern to the manufacturer's specified torque.
  8. Reconnect any hoses, refill coolant if drained, and reconnect the battery.
  9. Start the engine and carefully inspect for any exhaust or water leaks around the sealed joint.

Troubleshooting & FAQ

How do I confirm this gasket fits my specific engine model?

The best way is to match your engine's original part number to a number listed in our Part Number Matrix. You can also use the Engine & Model Compatibility tables to check by brand, model, and horsepower, but always verify your part number for a guaranteed match.

What are the signs of a leaking exhaust elbow gasket?

Common symptoms include water dripping from the joint between the manifold and elbow (externally or internally), rust stains, an audible hissing or puffing sound from the engine bay, or unexplained engine overheating.

Can I reuse my old gasket?

No. Gaskets are designed for single use. They compress to create a tight seal and will not provide a reliable seal if reused, leading to dangerous exhaust and water leaks.

How often should these gaskets be replaced?

It is best practice to replace exhaust gaskets whenever the components are separated for service or inspection. In saltwater environments, it's wise to inspect the exhaust system annually for corrosion and leaks.

Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?

This is a high-quality aftermarket replacement part, not an OEM component. It has been manufactured in an ISO 9002 certified facility to meet or exceed original equipment specifications using comparable materials and has been batch-inspected for quality and consistency.

How fast is shipping?

We ship worldwide, with most orders arriving within 5–15 days via standard shipping. Expedited shipping options are available at checkout for most destinations.

What is your warranty and return policy?

This product is covered by a 1-year warranty against manufacturing defects under normal marine use. If you encounter an issue, please contact our support team with your order number. We accept returns for unused items in their original condition within our standard return window. Please see our full policy page for details.
