-   148 applications across the D, TAD and TWD series

## 🔌 Function

Seals the flat joint between the starter and its mounting so the interface stays clean and correctly spaced.

## ⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

-   Oil or damp seeping at the starter mounting face
-   Gasket torn, hardened or found in pieces on removal
-   Starter engagement noisy or harsh, suggesting the spacing has changed
-   Mounting fixings found loose
-   Corrosion on the mating faces

## 🛠️ Service Notes
