Installation Notes
- Ensure the engine is off and cool. Disconnect the battery and drain the cooling system completely.
- Carefully remove components obstructing access to the cylinder head, such as the engine cover, ignition coils, and fuel lines. Keep track of all hardware.
- Loosen and remove the cylinder head bolts in the reverse order of the manufacturer's tightening sequence. Lift the cylinder head off the block.
- Remove the old gasket. Thoroughly clean the mating surfaces on both the engine block and the cylinder head. Use a plastic scraper and appropriate solvent to remove all residue without gouging the metal.
- Position the new gasket on the engine block, ensuring all bolt holes and fluid passages align perfectly. Do not use any sealant unless explicitly required by the service manual.
- Carefully place the cylinder head back onto the block and gasket. Reinstall the head bolts and tighten them in stages, following the specific torque sequence and values outlined in your engine's service manual.
- Re-install all previously removed components, reconnect the battery, refill the cooling system, and check all fluid levels before starting the engine.
Troubleshooting & FAQ
How do I know if my cylinder head gasket is failing?
Key symptoms include engine overheating, a noticeable loss of power or compression, milky or frothy engine oil (indicating coolant contamination), white smoke from the exhaust, or visible coolant leaks around the cylinder head seam.
Is this gasket compatible with my specific engine?
This gasket is designed for the Tohatsu and Nissan 9.9HP, 15HP, and 18HP 2-stroke models listed in the compatibility table, such as the M9.9D, M15D, and M18E2 series. It also fits certain international Mercury 9.9HP engines using a Tohatsu powerhead. Always verify your engine's model, year, and OEM part number against our tables before ordering.
What is the correct installation orientation for this gasket?
The gasket is precision-cut and will only align correctly in one orientation. Match the bolt holes and passages on the gasket with those on the engine block surface before placing the cylinder head. There is no top or bottom, but the shape is asymmetrical to ensure a unique fit.
