859038 Timing Cover Gasket – Volvo Penta

The 859038 Timing Cover Gasket seals the front timing cover on key diesel engines such as the D30, D31, D40, D41, and D42.  Without this gasket, oil can leak and contaminants can enter the timing-gear housing, which may lead to serious engine damage.

Choose this gasket to restore the factory-spec seal and ensure proper alignment of the timing cover. It fits a wide range of Volvo Penta marine diesel engines including the KAD / KAMD 42 series.  The correct installation improves engine reliability and reduces the risk of coolant or oil contamination.

Start by removing the timing cover, cleaning the mating surfaces thoroughly, and fitting the gasket correctly with the designated orientation. Use thread sealant where required and torque the bolts to manufacturer specifications. Once installed, you should notice no seepage and quieter engine operation.

For marine-engine service specialists and restoration projects alike, this gasket offers dependable performance at an affordable price. Get it from a trusted supplier and keep your engine running smoothly with the right components.
