Troubleshooting & FAQ
How do I know if this gasket will fit my engine?
The best way to confirm fitment is to check your original part number against the ones listed in our Part Number Matrix. You can also review the Engine & Model Compatibility table. If you are unsure, please compare the pictures to your original part.
What are the signs of a failing fuel pump gasket?
Common signs include a visible fuel leak around the fuel pump, a strong smell of gasoline, poor engine performance, hesitation during acceleration, or difficulty starting the engine.
Can I reuse my old gasket or do I need a new one?
It is never recommended to reuse a fuel pump gasket. Gaskets compress to create a seal and will not provide a reliable seal if re-installed. Always use a new gasket when servicing the fuel pump.
Is any sealant required with this gasket?
Generally, no additional sealant is required for this type of gasket. It is designed to create a seal on its own. Applying sealant can sometimes interfere with proper sealing. Always follow the instructions in your engine's service manual.
