FAQs

What vehicles is the FAI EM1136-FA003 gasket set compatible with?

This gasket set is designed for specific Chrysler, Mini, and Fiat models. Always verify compatibility with your vehicle's exact make, model, year, and engine specifications before purchasing.

What is the main function of an exhaust manifold gasket?

The primary function is to create a seal between the exhaust manifold and the cylinder head, preventing exhaust gases from leaking out and ensuring they are directed through the exhaust system.

Can I install this gasket myself?

While possible for experienced DIY mechanics, installation requires working with the exhaust system and precise torque settings. Professional installation by a qualified mechanic is recommended for optimal results and safety.

What happens if the exhaust manifold gasket fails?

A failed gasket can lead to exhaust leaks, which may cause reduced engine performance, increased fuel consumption, loud exhaust noise, a sulfur smell in the cabin, and potentially failed emissions tests.

How do I know if I need to replace my exhaust manifold gasket?

Symptoms include ticking or puffing noises from the engine bay at startup, a noticeable exhaust smell, decreased engine power, or a Check Engine Light with specific exhaust-related trouble codes.

Is this a genuine OE part?

This is an OE quality replacement part, meaning it is manufactured to meet or exceed the standards of the original equipment part.

Troubleshooting

Exhaust leak noise persists after installation.

Verify that the exhaust manifold bolts were torqued to the manufacturer's specifications. Check for cracks or warping in the exhaust manifold itself or the cylinder head mating surface. Ensure no other exhaust component is leaking.

Check Engine Light illuminates with exhaust-related codes.

Re-inspect the gasket seating and manifold bolts. Ensure all oxygen sensors and exhaust temperature sensors are properly connected and functioning. The issue may lie with a different exhaust component or a sensor malfunction.

Difficulty obtaining a proper seal.

Ensure both the manifold and cylinder head surfaces are perfectly clean, smooth, and free of debris, rust, or old gasket material. Warped surfaces will prevent a proper seal.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Installation of the FAI Exhaust Manifold Gasket Set EM1136-FA003 involves removing the exhaust manifold, cleaning the mating surfaces on both the manifold and the cylinder head, and then installing the new gasket before reattaching the manifold. It is highly recommended that this procedure be performed by a qualified mechanic, as exhaust system work can be complex and requires specific torque specifications to prevent damage.

Compatibility: This gasket set is specifically designed for certain Chrysler, Mini, and Fiat vehicle models. It is essential to cross-reference the part number EM1136-FA003 with your vehicle's make, model, year, and engine specification to ensure it is the correct part. Consult your vehicle's service manual or a parts specialist if unsure.

Care: As a replacement part, this gasket set does not require ongoing care. Its longevity depends on proper installation and the overall condition of the exhaust system. Ensure that any related components, such as the manifold itself and the bolts, are in good condition to facilitate a proper seal.
