  5. Position the new gasket correctly on the clean mounting surface.

Troubleshooting & FAQ

How do I know if this gasket fits my specific MerCruiser engine?

The most reliable method is to match the part number from your old gasket or service manual to the numbers in our Part Number Matrix. While this part fits a wide range of MerCruiser sea water pumps, confirming the part number (e.g., 27-8052151) ensures correct fitment.

What are the signs of a failing sea water pump gasket?

Common symptoms include visible water leaks around the sea water pump housing, engine overheating at idle or low speeds, or finding that the old gasket is cracked, brittle, or deformed upon inspection.

Can I reuse my old gasket or this new one after installation?

No. Gaskets are designed for a single use and compress to create a unique seal. Always install a new gasket whenever the pump is serviced to guarantee a leak-proof connection and prevent potential engine damage.
