Gasket Set, timing case - 4.90916 DT Spare Parts

The timing case gasket is a flat sealing element that is located in the space between the block and the actual valve cover. It prevents the penetration of used oil from the interior of the motor to the outside. Perhaps this is her only purpose. The reliability of the motor depends on the quality and material of its manufacture, but the cover itself is also of no small importance. It is important that it is attached as tightly as possible to the cylinder head and ensures maximum tightness, since many characteristics depend on this. The cover is fixed to the block with at least 8 nuts.

The usage of timing case gasket set

The place where the cover fits on the cylinder head should be as even and smooth as possible. The presence of any even the smallest defect can lead to depressurization and pressure drop. The gasket for this sits on a special sealant.

Typically, this part is replaced in the DT Spare Parts brand Gasket Set, timing case:

1. During the implementation of any type of internal combustion engine repair associated with raising the valve cover.
2. When an oil leak is detected, when the gasket in one of the places begins to leak.
3. During the removal of the block and the restoration work.
