Troubleshooting & FAQ
How do I know if this gasket fits my Suzuki DF2.5?
This gasket is for Suzuki DF2.5 models from 2012-Current, which use part number 17472-97JL0. It also replaces the older part 17472-97J00 used on 2006–2011 models. Always verify against your existing part number if possible.
What are the signs of a failed pump case panel gasket?
A failed gasket can cause water leaks from the pump assembly, leading to engine overheating or a weak or non-existent water stream from the "tell-tale" outlet. This indicates poor water circulation and requires immediate attention.
Can I reuse my old gasket after inspection?
No. Gaskets are designed for a single use. They compress to create a seal and will not provide a reliable seal if re-installed. Always use a new gasket when servicing the water pump.
What is the difference between part 17472-97JL0 and 17472-97J00?
17472-97JL0 is the current, updated OEM part number from Suzuki. It directly supersedes the older part, 17472-97J00, and is the correct replacement for all specified model years.
