Description

This cylinder head gasket is a genuine replacement part for select small engines. The cylinder head gasket is installed between the cylinder head and the engine block. It is responsible for creating a seal for the internal combustion engine to work properly and to help keep the oil and coolant separate as they travel between the cylinder head and the engine block. Gaskets are considered a maintenance part because their exposure to high heat and pressure cause wear, warping, and other damage over time. When a gasket is damaged, the seal is affected. Air could escape or the oil and coolant could mix, which would both produce bad results for the engine. This genuine OEM cylinder head gasket replacement is manufactured to exact standards by Briggs & Stratton. This part is compatible with select engines found in lawn and garden machines manufactured by Briggs & Stratton and Toro. The gasket is sold as an individual part and does not include any hardware or additional components. Be sure to allow the engine to cool and wear gloves when replacing gaskets. It is a good idea to replace gaskets when performing other engine repairs to ensure a proper seal when putting the engine back together.
