Troubleshooting & FAQ

How do I confirm this gasket fits my Yanmar engine?

This gasket is specifically for the Yanmar 1GM model. The most reliable way to confirm fitment is by matching the OEM part number 128170-01331. It is explicitly not compatible with the 1GM10 model, so please verify your engine model plate carefully.

What are the signs of a failing cylinder head gasket?

Common symptoms include engine overheating, white smoke from the exhaust (burning coolant), loss of coolant with no visible external leak, milky or discolored engine oil (coolant contamination), or a loss of compression and power.

Is replacing a head gasket considered routine maintenance?

No, a cylinder head gasket is designed to last for many years and is not a routine replacement item. It is typically only replaced when it fails or during a major engine overhaul that requires removing the cylinder head.

Is this aftermarket gasket as good as the original Yanmar part?

This is a high-quality aftermarket part manufactured to meet or exceed original equipment manufacturer (OEM) specifications. It provides a reliable, cost-effective alternative to the genuine OEM part without sacrificing performance or durability.
