Installation Notes

  1. Disconnect the battery and drain the engine's cooling system completely.
  2. Remove all interfering components such as the intake manifold, exhaust manifold, and valve cover.
  3. Carefully remove the cylinder head bolts in the reverse order of the tightening sequence specified by the manufacturer.
  4. Lift the cylinder head off the engine block and remove the old head gasket.
  5. Thoroughly clean the mating surfaces of both the engine block and cylinder head, ensuring they are free of old gasket material, oil, and debris.
  6. Position the new head gasket correctly on the engine block; do not use any sealant unless explicitly required.
  7. Carefully place the cylinder head back onto the block.
  8. Install new or inspected head bolts and torque them in the correct sequence and stages according to your engine's service manual.
  9. Reassemble all previously removed components.
  10. Refill the cooling system, reconnect the battery, and start the engine to check for any leaks.

Troubleshooting & FAQ

How do I confirm this head gasket fits my specific engine model?

The most reliable method is to check your engine's serial number against the ranges provided in the "Engine & Model Compatibility" table. Your serial number is typically found on a tag on the transom bracket or on the engine block.

What are the common signs of a blown head gasket?

Symptoms include engine overheating, white smoke from the exhaust (coolant burning), a milky appearance in the engine oil (coolant mixing with oil), loss of compression, and poor engine performance.

Can I reuse my old head bolts for installation?

It is strongly recommended to use new head bolts, as many are torque-to-yield (TTY) bolts designed to stretch permanently upon first use. Reusing them can lead to improper clamping force and premature gasket failure.

Is any sealant required when installing this gasket?

Most modern head gaskets are designed to be installed dry. Unless the service manual for your specific engine explicitly calls for a sealant, do not apply any. Sealants can interfere with the gasket's ability to create a proper seal.

How is an aftermarket part different from the OEM version?

This is an aftermarket part, not a factory original. It is designed and manufactured to meet or exceed the performance specifications of the OEM part, offering a high-quality, cost-effective alternative.

What is the recommended replacement interval for a head gasket?

Head gaskets are not a routine maintenance item. They are typically replaced only when they fail or during a major engine overhaul.

OEM vs. Aftermarket?

This listing is an aftermarket replacement (not OEM). Built to OEM-level specifications with comparable materials. Manufactured in an ISO 9002 facility, batch-inspected for consistency.
