⚠️ Installation Tip

Whenever the cylinder head is removed, it is recommended to install new OEM gaskets during reassembly to ensure a proper seal and help prevent future compression, intake, or exhaust leaks.

💡 Pro Tip

To simplify the repair, leave the intake manifold attached to the cylinder head and remove the carburetor from the intake manifold instead. This reduces disassembly and makes reassembly quicker and easier.

Why Replace the Gaskets?

Replacing these gaskets during cylinder head service helps prevent:

• Compression leaks
• Intake vacuum leaks
• Exhaust leaks
• Hard starting
• Reduced engine power
• Poor engine performance
• Oil leaks around the cylinder head

Using new OEM gaskets helps ensure a reliable repair and long service life.
