Description of Change: A new multi-layer steel flywheel housing gasket will go into production on all 3408 and 3412 Machine Engines that are currently manufactured with a flywheel housing perforated steel core gasket. Machine engines that are currently being manufactured with an anaerobic seal will continue to be manufactured with an anaerobic flywheel housing seal. The new gasket will help prevent leaks between the flywheel housing and the cylinder block.

The new 161-7293 Gasket-Cylinder Block (multi-layer) is a direct replacement for the 8N-1911 Gasket-Cylinder Block (paper) or 113-1474 Gasket-Cylinder Block (steel core).
