Troubleshooting & FAQ
How do I know which part number series (121575- vs 128170-) is right for my engine?
The 128170-series (128170-01510, 128170-01511) is specifically for the 1GM10 and 1GM10L models. The 121575-series fits the older 1GM as well as the 2GM and 3GM series engines. Please check our compatibility table and verify your engine model before ordering.
What are common signs of a failing front seal cover gasket?
The most common symptom is a persistent oil leak from the front of the engine, particularly around the seam where the front cover meets the engine block. You may notice oil drips under the engine or an oily film on the surrounding components.
Should I apply sealant to this gasket during installation?
Generally, this type of gasket is designed to be installed dry without any additional sealant. However, always consult your Yanmar engine's official service manual for model-specific instructions, as recommendations can vary.
Can I reuse my old gasket if it looks okay?
No. Gaskets are single-use components that compress and deform to create a seal. Reusing an old gasket will almost certainly result in leaks. Always use a new gasket during reassembly.
