🔌 Function

The gaskets seal compressed-air, coolant, oil and crankcase passages inside the engine-driven compressor.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• Slow air-pressure build-up
• Air, oil or coolant leakage from the compressor
• Excessive compressor temperature
• Gasket failure after head or valve-plate removal
• Oil carry-over or pressure loss persists after external checks

🛠️ Service Notes

• Check the kit contents against the joints you are actually opening before you start, and lay the parts out so nothing is left in the bag
• Renew every gasket in the kit as a set; a used gasket has already taken its crush and will not seal a second time
• Clean the mating faces properly without gouging them — a plastic or hardwood scraper and a solvent are safer than a steel blade, especially on aluminium
• Fit gaskets dry unless the workshop manual for your engine specifies a sealant, and then use only the sealant it names
• Tighten the joint evenly in the sequence and to the figures given in the manual for your engine, and re-check after the first heat cycle where the manual calls for it
