Troubleshooting & FAQ
Which Volvo Penta engines does this gasket fit?
This gasket fits a range of Volvo Penta engines, including the D2-55, D2-60, D2-75, and MD22 series. Please review the detailed compatibility table on this page to confirm a match for your specific engine model and year before purchasing.
What is the difference between this gasket and the OEM version?
The original OEM gasket is typically made of black rubber. This aftermarket replacement uses a high-durability urethane material, which provides enhanced sealing and a longer service life compared to the standard rubber alternatives.
What are the signs of a failing exhaust gasket?
Common signs of a bad gasket include a ticking or hissing sound from the engine, a noticeable drop in engine performance, visible soot or black streaks around the exhaust elbow's connection point, and the smell of exhaust fumes in the engine compartment.
When should I replace the exhaust elbow gasket?
It is best practice to replace the gasket whenever you service or replace the exhaust elbow itself. You should also replace it immediately if you detect any signs of an exhaust leak to prevent further damage or unsafe conditions.
