Seals and gaskets prevent oil, coolant, fuel and combustion gases escaping between mating surfaces throughout the engine, and almost every joint opened during a repair depends on one. This group covers head gaskets, manifold and cover gaskets, crankshaft front and rear seals, valve stem seals, O-rings, and complete top and full gasket sets. Perkins engines span a wide size range, from the compact 400 Series through the 1100 and 1200 Series to the 2000 and 4000 Series used in large generating sets, and gasket specification varies considerably across them. Because Perkins builds the same engine series to many different specifications for different applications, the engine serial number is the reliable route to the correct gasket set.

Overheating, a warped or corroded sealing face, and incorrect bolt torque or tightening sequence. The gasket is usually the symptom rather than the cause.
