Installation Notes and Tips

Clean the mating surfaces thoroughly before installation and inspect the water pump and block surfaces for corrosion, pitting, or old gasket material. Confirm the lower, to block application and match the vehicle year, make, and model before assembly. Mahle K32979 is specified for molded rubber sealing applications, so proper surface preparation is important for a reliable seal.
