Overview

It is a gasket only, so the timing cover itself is not included.

Gasket fit and surfaces
A timing cover gasket sits between two machined faces, so its job depends on clean, flat surfaces. Small high spots or old material can cause seepage even on a new gasket, so take time with the prep before bolting the cover down.
Older Jeep and Willys engines often carry layers of hardened sealant from earlier repairs. Remove it with a plastic scraper and a solvent that suits the metal, and avoid gouging the block or cover. Check the cover’s bolt holes for debris. Keep track of bolt lengths as you remove them, since mixed lengths can cause leaks.
Tighten the cover bolts evenly and in sequence, then recheck them after the engine has warmed and cooled. Oil leaks at the cover edge are usually a sign that the surfaces or bolt pressure need attention.
- Clean both sealing faces until flat
- Tighten bolts evenly in sequence
- Recheck torque after the engine warms
