Troubleshooting & FAQ
How do I confirm this gasket fits my engine?
This gasket is specifically made for Volvo Penta D1-13, D1-13B, and D1-13F engine models. The best way to ensure fitment is to check the part number (3809647 or 3808602) from your engine's service manual and compare it to this listing.
What are the common signs of a failing cylinder head gasket?
Symptoms of a blown head gasket include engine overheating, white smoke from the exhaust (burning coolant), milky or frothy engine oil, unexplained coolant loss, and poor engine performance or loss of compression.
Why are two part numbers (3809647 and 3808602) listed?
Manufacturers often update part numbers over time. In this case, 3809647 is a newer number that supersedes the older 3808602. Both refer to the same component with identical specifications for the listed engines.
Is this gasket made from the same material as the original?
This aftermarket gasket is manufactured to meet or exceed OEM specifications, using comparable, high-quality materials suitable for the high-pressure, high-temperature environment of a marine diesel engine.
OEM vs. Aftermarket?
This listing is an aftermarket replacement (not OEM). Built to OEM-level specifications with comparable materials. Manufactured in an ISO 9002 facility, batch-inspected for consistency.
