Troubleshooting & FAQ

How do I know if this gasket fits my engine?

This gasket fits various Mercury/Mercruiser engines, including the 150/175/200 EFI models. To ensure a correct fit, please compare your original part to our images and specs, and confirm your OEM part number is 27-782461.

What are the signs of a failing exhaust tube gasket?

Common signs of a bad gasket include visible exhaust or water leaks around the driveshaft housing, an unusually loud engine exhaust noise, or potential engine overheating. A physical inspection might show the gasket is cracked, brittle, or degraded.

Is sealant required for this gasket installation?

Whether a sealant is needed depends on your specific engine model's service manual recommendations. Some gaskets are designed to be installed dry, while others benefit from a thin layer of a specific marine-grade sealant. Always consult your manual for the correct procedure.

When should this gasket be replaced?

It is recommended to replace this gasket any time the components it seals are disassembled for maintenance or repair. It should also be replaced immediately if you notice any signs of a leak or failure.
