🔌 Function

The gasket compresses between two fuel system faces to form a fuel-tight joint, taking up surface irregularities so fuel cannot weep past. It also prevents air being drawn in on the suction side of the system.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• Fuel weeping, dripping or staining at the joint
• Air drawn into the fuel system causing hard starting or rough running
• Hardened, flattened or torn gasket found on removal
• Joint requiring repeated re-tightening to stay sealed
• Fuel smell or residue around the joint area

🛠️ Service Notes

• Fit a new gasket every time the joint is disturbed — a gasket takes a permanent set once it has been torqued and will not seal reliably a second time
• Scrape both faces back to clean bare metal, keeping the blade at a shallow angle so it lifts the old material without gouging the surface, and use a plastic scraper on aluminium castings
• Check the faces for flatness, cracks and corrosion pitting, and make sure no old gasket, carbon or hardened sealant is left in the corners or around the bolt holes
• Fit the gasket dry unless the workshop manual for your engine calls for a sealant, and then only the type it specifies — surplus sealant squeezes out into oil, coolant and fuel passages
• Draw the fasteners down progressively in the sequence and to the torque given in the manual for your engine, and recheck after the first heat cycle where the manual asks for it
