Honda Insight ECA1 Rocker Cover Gasket












The first generation Honda Insight ZE1 is using a 3 cylinder engine with engine code ECA1, which should be the improvement from their previous E0 series of engine, the info for this engine can be found in Wikipedia link here.

I'm not so sure if the Honda Insight in Malaysia have the ZE1 model, most we encounter in Malaysia market is the 4 cylinder LDA type of engine which is for second generation ZE2 and ZE3 model. But it may not surprise if there are customer looking for this piece of gasket if the vehicle are from our neighbour country like Thailand or Singapore.

Just stock up few pieces of rocker cover gasket at the moment, and may consider of stocking the gasket kit if it is really exist on the road of Malaysia.

Daihatsu GranMax Throttle Body Gasket


























Malaysia Daihatsu GranMax model is using the 3SZ-VE type of engine, although this engine is consider in the same family range with the old Perodua MYVI or Toyota Avanza model which carry 3SZ-FE or K3-VE engine, with most of the gasket is interchangeable between this few model, but there is one piece of gasket is quite special when compare among this model.

The throttle body gasket for Perodua MYVI and Toyota Avanza model is just a normal piece of O-Ring, but the Daihatsu GranMax throttle body gasket is like the one you can see in the above photo, which it include the metal netting in the inner O-Ring portion.
