This is a Timing Gear Cover Gasket, essential for creating a seal between the engine block and the timing gear cover to prevent oil leaks. It ensures the integrity of the lubrication system by containing engine oil within the timing gear housing. Visible oil leaks around the front of the engine, particularly near the crankshaft pulley, are the primary indicators of a failed gasket.
Always verify with serial number before ordering.

Inspect mating surfaces for wear before fitting. Use torque specs from service manual. Replace gaskets and seals as a set — reusing compressed gaskets causes oil leaks. Clean all oil passages with compressed air.
Always consult the OEM service manual for model-specific torque values and procedures. WhatsApp our technical team if you need fitment guidance.
The first sign of a failing gasket is typically an oil leak originating from the front of the engine, around the timing cover area. If left unaddressed, the oil leak can worsen, leading to a significant loss of engine oil. Low engine oil levels can result in increased friction and heat, potentially causing severe damage to internal engine components.
Ensure the sealing surfaces on both the engine block and the timing gear cover are perfectly clean and dry before installing the new gasket. Do not reuse old bolts or over-torque the cover bolts, as this can distort the cover and cause leaks.
Inspect the timing gears, crankshaft seal, and water pump for wear or leaks while the timing cover is removed.
