Installation Notes

  1. Disconnect the battery and ground the ignition system. Drain the engine coolant completely.
  2. Remove components obstructing the cylinder head, such as the cover, intake, and exhaust manifolds.
  3. Following the service manual, loosen and remove the cylinder head bolts in the specified sequence (typically in reverse order of tightening).
  4. Carefully lift the cylinder head from the engine block. Avoid using pry tools that could damage the mating surfaces.
  5. Remove the old head gasket. Thoroughly clean all old gasket material, sealant, oil, and grime from both the engine block and cylinder head surfaces.
  6. Verify the new gasket is clean and correctly oriented before placing it on the engine block.
  7. Lower the cylinder head into position without disturbing the new gasket.
  8. Install new or verified head bolts. Torque them to the manufacturer's specifications in the correct pattern and sequence.
  9. Reassemble all previously removed components and refill the cooling system.
  10. Reconnect the battery, start the engine, and carefully inspect for any coolant, oil, or compression leaks.

Troubleshooting & FAQ

How do I know if this gasket will fit my engine?

This gasket fits Tohatsu and Nissan 6HP, 8HP, and 9.8HP 2-stroke models from 1997–2006. It is also compatible with many Hangkai, Hidea, and Parsun 9.8/10HP 2-stroke models. Always verify by checking your engine model and original part number against our compatibility tables.

What are the signs of a failed cylinder head gasket?

Common symptoms include engine overheating, loss of power and compression, white smoke from the exhaust (burning coolant), milky or discolored engine oil, or visible coolant/oil leaks from the seam between the cylinder head and engine block.

Can I reuse my old cylinder head bolts?

It is strongly recommended to use new cylinder head bolts during installation. Head bolts can stretch when torqued ("torque-to-yield" bolts are single-use) and may not provide the correct clamping force if reused, which can lead to premature gasket failure.

Is any sealant required with this gasket?

This gasket is typically designed to be installed dry. Unless explicitly specified by your engine's service manual for your specific model, do not use additional sealants, as they can interfere with the gasket's ability to create a proper seal.

OEM vs. Aftermarket?
