How do I install the 4N0659 gasket?
A reliable installation of the 4N0659 starts with inspection and ends with verification. Follow this process:
- Shut down, cool, and depressurize the assembly before opening it
- Remove the old gasket and scrape the surfaces fully clean
- Inspect both faces for warping, pitting, or scoring
