Troubleshooting & FAQ
How do I know if this gasket will fit my engine?
Please verify your engine model and serial number against the compatibility list provided. This gasket is specifically for certain Mercruiser and Mercury Marine models like the 30 JET and 40 (4 CYL.) within the specified serial number ranges.
What are the signs of a failing exhaust cover gasket?
Common symptoms include visible exhaust or water leaks around the exhaust cover area, a noticeable change in engine sound (louder or sputtering), or a decrease in overall engine performance and efficiency.
Can I reuse my old gasket?
No. Gaskets are single-use components that compress to create a seal. Reusing an old gasket will likely result in leaks and poor performance. Always install a new gasket whenever a component is removed for service.
