Detailed Description

Fel-Pro 35852 is an engine water pump gasket for sealing the water pump-to-engine interface on select Buick, Chevrolet, and Pontiac models. The gasket is engineered around the application to help maintain a dependable coolant seal, and the 0.035 thickness supports proper compression at the mating surface. For technicians servicing a Chevrolet Impala, Pontiac Grand Prix, or Buick LaCrosse, this gasket provides a direct-fit sealing solution from a brand known for sealing systems.

Fel-Pro’s gasket line is built around vehicle-specific materials and sealing geometry rather than universal fitment. That approach helps ensure the gasket matches the intended water pump pattern and sealing requirements for the listed applications.

What This Part Helps Address

• Coolant seepage at the water pump sealing surface.
• Leaks caused by a worn or flattened gasket.
• Poor sealing after water pump service.
• Improper gasket fit on the specified engine application.

Installation Notes and Tips

Clean both mating surfaces thoroughly before installation and verify the mounting pattern matches the application. Use the gasket only on the listed fitments for the best sealing results. Follow the vehicle service procedure for torque sequence and coolant refill.

Quality Assurance

Fel-Pro gaskets are developed for 100% vehicle sealing using application-specific materials. The brand is widely used in professional repair environments for sealing systems that require consistent fit and durability.
