Motor Gaskets

This is why gaskets in the engine compartment are so important

Optimum condition of every engine seal is important not only in the engine compartment, so that neither fuel, oil or air have an undesired influence on combustion. For engines to perform at their best, it is important to work with an optimal air-fuel mixture. If individual valves are not optimally sealed or if there are other leaks in the material, performance drops and fuel consumption increases. There is also a higher security risk.

The risk of porous or defective engine seals in the engine compartment is all the greater when heat or fire from the engine's combustion processes threatens to spread to other car parts. If the engine compartment is not optimally sealed, it is even conceivable that vehicle parts beyond the combustion chamber could catch fire. A fire of this type can spread quickly, especially if the leak involves flammable materials such as oil or gasoline. An unwanted draft from a failed seal can also allow oxygen into the system, further igniting a fire.

Replace defective engine seals in good time with spare parts

Like all vehicle parts, seals in the engine compartment are subject to gradual wear, over the years they become porous and show cracks. Seals in the hot engine environment are subject to greater stress and faster wear than other seals in an automobile. As a rule, these are checked less frequently, since the engine has to be completely or partially disassembled for this purpose.

Other seals are easier to access and designed for faster replacement. A typical case is the cylinder head gasket, as well as gaskets on the intake manifold and on the oil pan of your vehicle. Depending on the seal, the defect can be identified by the escape of lubricant, and a leak in oil can be identified quickly. In all cases, it must be checked whether the problem can be solved simply by replacing a seal or whether other vehicle parts are causing problems that can be solved with additional spare parts.
