Troubleshooting & FAQ
How do I confirm this gasket fits my engine?
This gasket is a direct replacement for Volvo Penta part 842597 and is used with oil coolers like the 861600, 876550, and 840957. Please consult your engine's service manual or check the part number on your existing gasket to confirm compatibility. It is confirmed to fit the Volvo Penta 2003T model.
What are the signs of a failing oil cooler gasket?
Common symptoms include oil leaking externally from the oil cooler seals, oil present in the cooling system (a milky substance in the expansion tank), or coolant contamination in the engine oil (visible on the dipstick).
Can I reuse my old gasket after removing the oil cooler?
No. Gaskets are designed to crush and seal once. They should never be reused. Always install a new gasket whenever the component is removed to guarantee a leak-free repair.
Does this gasket require sealant during installation?
Typically, this type of gasket is installed dry. Adding sealants can sometimes interfere with its ability to seal properly. Always follow the installation guidelines provided in your engine’s official service manual for the most accurate procedure.
