Toyota 1NR-FE Rocker Cover

The Toyota 1NR-FE engine, which can be found in Perodua Bezza, and also the new model of Toyota Vios, Avanza and Perodua MYVI have a very unique rocker cover. In previous post we showed the photo of the rocker cover gasket, which the design is quite different from other type of rocker cover gasket, and now let's have a look on the rocker cover itself to see why the gasket need to be design as such pattern.

Mitsubishi Evolution 6 Full Set Gasket

Previously we only import the Mitsubishi Air-Trek DOHC Full Set Gasket for the local market demand, and after that there are customer looking for the Mitsubishi Evolution 6 gasket, and we found it is similar to the Air-Trek DOHC type, indeed most content inside are same, but the Air-Trek DOHC type seems have some item missing, those Turbocharger gasket kit.

So we bring in some set of it and see what is their different, you will found that turbocharger gasket in it. Both are under 4G63 engine code and this is for Mitsubishi Lancer CN9A.

Smart Fortwo engine gasket

Smart Fortwo is a rear engine, rear wheel drive, 2 seaters city car, although its manufacturer is Daimler AG, but their engine is seems mostly using the Mitsubishi type, previously we had share the photo on those under 3A91 and 3A92 type, and this photo is showing the 3B21 engine code in Mitsubishi which install on Smart Fortwo 2007 onwards.

Nissan HR15DE and HR16DE Rocker Cover Gasket Kit Set

The Nissan HR15DE and HR16DE intake manifold gasket is the rubber o-ring type of gasket, unlike other engine that also use the rubber type o-ring manifold gasket, we found that the HR15DE and HR16DE (This may include the MR18DE and MR20DE case) intake manifold gasket is moving quite fast compare to other rubber type of manifold gasket.

When I quite don't understand why, I had order some rocker cover gasket kit set from KP, and interestingly found that the intake manifold gasket is included in the rocker cover kit set, which is not seen for other model.

So I wonder if the engine rocker is design as such when it is dismantle, the manifold also need to be take out? From the rocker cover gasket and intake manifold gasket diagram below, can you find the clue?

Toyota 2UZ-FE Rocker Cover Gasket

Toyota 2UZ-FE engine is one of few V8 engine that can be found in the Toyota range, most of it can be found in model such as Lexus GS400, LS400, LX470 and SC400, for Malaysia market most probably it is in Landcruiser Cygnus 4.7 model, it the same cc, model of Sequoia, Tundra and 4Runner can be found in other country.

Honda new type ofl Plug Seal

When first found out this type of plug seal, is from Honda Insight model which is hybrid model, and it is from engine of L13 and L15 series of engine, so initially I thought it may be a special design of plug seal mean for this hybrid engine.

Later on, we found that from a different rocker cover, it is from a Honda Accord CR3 with K24Z series of engine, also having the same plug seal, but of course the different rocker cover gasket.

I'm starting wondering if Honda will using this type of plug seal for their up-coming model on different type of rocker cover.

Isuzu 6UZ1 Overhaul Gasket Kit

KP is more on producing the passenger vehicle of gasket, the largest CC model can be found in their catalogue most probably is the Isuzu 4HF1 model.

And for Malaysia market, the Isuzu truck is starting to change from 4H series to 6H series of engine like 6HH1 or 6HK1, which is not under the KP product range.

And from the Japanese Motor Vehicle Guidebook, found out there are one Isuzu engine model call 6UZ1 which install in Isuzu Giga, and not sure if this engine is exist in Malaysia Isuzu truck.

So just searching for the gasket online to see how it is looks like out of my curiosity, and sharing the photo for your viewing.
