Why Engine Gaskets Are More Important Than You Imagine

Engine gaskets are critical seals that exist between engine parts that are supposed to hold oil, coolant and the engine pressure. When these seals break, there is a leakage and this results in:  

• Burning oil smells  

• Oil leaks spots while you park 

• Reduced engine performance  

• Overheating  

• Check engine lights  

• Expensive long term engine damage  

A minor leakage of gasket can result in a costly engine replacement instead of a cheap fix. This is why it is important to have fast, on time and same day service.

Valve Cover Gasket Problems: The One of the Most Frequent Leakages

The most common symptom of engine sealing failure is a valve cover gasket that is not functioning. With time, the gasket is hardened, cracks or shrinks under heat and pressure. Our services deal with the valve cover gasket repair and valve cover gasket replacement:  

• Leakage of oil on the exhaust manifold.  

• Smoke from under the hood  

• Slicking of oil about spark plugs.  

• Misfires in the engines due to oil contamination.  

Valve cover leaks may cause oil to spill over the engine bay, as well as destroy other components, unless addressed.  

Our professional and qualified technicians carry out valve cover leak repair with after market or custom gasket solution as required by your vehicle.

Valve Cover and Head Gasket Repair: Leaks That Go to the Bottom

Leaks of oil do not necessarily occur at the end of the valve cover. A damaged head gasket may lead to mixing of oil and coolant, loss in compression, or overheating- particularly with AWD, FWD, RWD and 4x4 models when they are overloaded. We also do it in our valve cover and head gasket repair process that involves:  

• Complete examination of engine of a qualified inspector.  

• Leakage testing and leakage detection. 

• Gasket removal accuracy and surface preparation.  

• Installation with the recommended torque by the manufacturers.  

• Performance and Safety inspection after repair.  

We maintain daily commuters to commercial, fleet, and heavy equipment vehicles; a hassle free, dependable and proven job.
