Troubleshooting & FAQ
How do I know if this gasket fits my engine?
This gasket is designed for the Johnson/Evinrude 15hp 2-Stroke engine from 1971 and other models listed. Always check the Part Number Matrix and Engine Compatibility table on this page against your engine's model, year, and original part number (308328). Visual comparison with your old part is also recommended.
What is the main sign of a failed thermostat gasket?
The most common symptom is a visible coolant leak from around the seam of the thermostat housing. This can lead to engine overheating if the coolant level drops significantly, so it should be addressed promptly.
Is sealant required with this gasket?
Generally, new gaskets are designed to seal without additional sealant. However, if the housing surfaces are slightly pitted or uneven from age, a thin, even application of a marine-grade gasket sealant can help ensure a perfect seal. Always consult your engine's service manual for specific recommendations.
How often should this gasket be replaced?
It is best practice to replace the thermostat gasket whenever the thermostat itself is serviced or replaced. You should also replace it immediately if you detect a leak.
