Troubleshooting & FAQ

How do I confirm this gasket fits my engine?

Check that your engine is one of the listed Volvo Penta AQ-series models, then compare the old gasket, manifold-to-riser bolt pattern, and documented replacement references 835908 or 856039. If the pattern or part reference differs, consult the engine service manual or a qualified marine mechanic.

Does the package include one gasket or two?

This listing includes two exhaust manifold-to-riser gaskets. They may be used on both sides of a V-engine when both sides use the same gasket and the application is confirmed.

What are the signs of a failing exhaust riser gasket?

Possible symptoms include external leakage at the manifold-to-riser joint, visible steam or water around the exhaust connection, exhaust noise, cooling-system loss, or overheating. Continued operation with a leaking exhaust gasket can cause additional engine damage.

Should the gasket be reused?

No. Replace the gasket whenever the exhaust riser or manifold is removed. Clean and inspect both mating surfaces before installing the replacement.

Is this an OEM gasket?

This is an aftermarket replacement gasket. Volvo Penta 835908 and 856039 are provided as replacement references for identification and fitment comparison.

Is installation professional service recommended?

Yes. Exhaust and cooling-system work should be performed by a qualified marine technician when the correct torque, sealing surfaces, or engine-specific service procedure cannot be confirmed.

What is the warranty and return policy?

Warranty and returns are subject to the seller's current policy. Contact support before installation if the part does not match the confirmed application.

Safety & Important Info

  • Verify the engine model, manifold and riser configuration, bolt pattern, and replacement reference before ordering.

  • Allow the engine to cool completely before beginning work.
  • Follow the engine manufacturer's service manual for fastener torque, coolant handling, and post-installation checks.
