This is a high-quality STONE brand replacement gasket for the carburettor-to-intake-manifold join on Nissan Patrols equipped with the TB42s petrol engine. Located between the base of the carburettor and the engine's intake manifold flange, this gasket creates an essential airtight seal for correct engine operation.
Over time, the original gasket degrades from constant exposure to engine heat, becoming hard, brittle, and unable to seal effectively. A failed gasket can cause a vacuum leak, leading to issues like a rough or high idle, poor performance, and a hissing noise from the engine bay. This Japanese-made STONE gasket is a durable, reliable replacement. It is highly recommended to install a new gasket any time the carburettor is removed for service to ensure a perfect seal upon reassembly.
For a successful installation, it is crucial that both mating surfaces are perfectly clean and free of old gasket material. We recommend using a quality carburettor cleaner to remove all residue before fitting the new gasket.
