Installation Notes

  1. Disconnect the battery and relieve fuel system pressure.
  2. Drain the engine coolant and oil completely.
  3. Remove interfering components such as the intake manifold, exhaust manifold, and valve cover.
  4. Loosen and remove the cylinder head bolts in the reverse order of the manufacturer's specified tightening sequence.
  5. Carefully lift the cylinder head off the engine block.
  6. Remove the old gasket and thoroughly clean both the cylinder head and engine block mating surfaces. Ensure they are flat, dry, and free of any old gasket material, oil, or debris.
  7. Position the new gasket correctly on the engine block, checking for proper alignment with any dowel pins.
  8. Carefully place the cylinder head back onto the block without dislodging the gasket.
  9. Install and torque the head bolts in the sequence and to the torque/angle specifications recommended by the engine manufacturer's service manual.
  10. Reassemble all previously removed components in the reverse order of removal.
  11. Refill the engine with fresh coolant and oil to the proper levels.
  12. Reconnect the battery, start the engine, and carefully inspect for any coolant, oil, or exhaust leaks as the engine warms up.

Troubleshooting & FAQ

How do I know if my cylinder head gasket is failing?

Common signs include engine overheating, white smoke from the exhaust (indicating coolant burn), milky or frothy engine oil (coolant contamination), or a visible external coolant or oil leak from the seam between the cylinder head and engine block.

Is this gasket for the port or starboard side?

This gasket is specifically designed for the port side (Stbd) cylinder head. A different part number is required for the starboard side.

Does this gasket require any additional sealant?

No, this gasket is designed to be installed dry. Do not use any sealants or adhesives unless explicitly instructed by your engine's service manual, as this can cause an improper seal and lead to premature failure.

When should a cylinder head gasket be replaced?

Cylinder head gaskets are typically only replaced when they fail or during a complete engine overhaul. There is no standard service interval for replacement under normal operating conditions.
