Car Gasket & Seals

Gaskets and seals are used throughout a vehicle to prevent the kinds of leaks that will damage its performance. For instance, the head gasket is used to block the flow of liquids between the engine block and the cylinder head. If engine oil gets into the cylinder or the explosion that goes on inside the cylinder upon ignition escapes due to a blown gasket, the vehicle is in trouble. They may not look like much, but these kinds of seals are crucial. A blown gasket is, relatively speaking, inexpensive to replace if it is diagnosed early, but if left damaged for a long period of extended use, the cost of repairing the whole engine can be extremely high. That’s why even after you replace broken gaskets and seals with new ones, it is important to carry out regular health checks on them.
