Item Part Number Description 1 - Locating bush (2 off) 2 - Identification holes The cylinder head gasket is a 4-layer, laminated steel type and is available in 3 different thicknesses. The choice of gasket thickness is dependent on the maximum piston protrusion. Gasket thickness is identified by holes in the front end of the gasket. Two locating bushes are fitted in the cylinder block to centre the cylinder head gasket. • NOTE: If a cylinder head gasket is being changed only use a new gasket with the same identification markings. If new pistons or connecting rods are fitted, measure the maximum piston protrusion height and select the appropriate gasket. Damage to the gasket or mating faces of the cylinder head and engine block will lead to leaks and therefore must be avoided. Before fitting a new gasket it is important to make sure there is no dirt between the layers of the gasket. Glow Plugs |
