In the article "New Gasket Used At The Outlet Flange On Heavy-Duty Air Cleaner Group", a wrong "Serial No. Prefix" is shown in the chart. Change 62A shown for the D343A to read 62B.

--------------- END SUPPLEMENT ---------------

Description of Change: A gasket that seals on the inner circumference instead of the outer circumference of the air cleaner outlet flange is now used to give an improved seal. In some applications, rings are also used to improve the seal at this location. Longer bolts are necessary on most air cleaner groups when the rings are used.

New and former gasket.

Adaptable As: Shown in the chart.
