- Creates a seal between the engine and intake manifold
- Helps prevent air from leaking out of your engine
- Replace when failing
The engine in your Nissan relies on an airtight vacuum seal to contain gases, and an intact Engine Intake Manifold Gasket is essential for maintaining that tight seal. The intake manifold on your engine helps to distribute airflow throughout your engine's components while it runs. The Engine Intake Manifold Gasket (part number 140355NA0A) sits between the manifold and the engine to stop any air leaks, which may diminish the efficiency of your engine over time.
Your Nissan Engine Intake Manifold Gasket is made to stand up to everyday driving for several years, but replacing it may be necessary for an older vehicle. A worn out Engine Intake Manifold Gasket may cause misfires in the engine or a loss of power, which means your engine might be overworking and wrecking its long-term health if your Engine Intake Manifold Gasket fails to maintain an airtight seal. If your Nissan's engine has been running “rough” or your fuel efficiency has diminished over the last few weeks, you might want to have a professional engine inspection to see what condition your Engine Intake Manifold Gasket is in. To do this, head to a local Nissan dealer or authorized service location.
In many automotive engines, the Engine Intake Manifold Gasket may also seal coolant inside your engine. If you spot drips of orange or green coolant on the garage floor under your parking spot or detect a coolant smell (it tends to smell distinctively sweet) coming from your Nissan, the Engine Intake Manifold Gasket could be damaged (and therefore, not containing the coolant effectively). As you may have guessed, low coolant levels can cause an overheated engine, which can produce other more serious issues within your engine in the future.
A fully functioning Engine Intake Manifold Gasket is an integral engine part, and putting in a replacement is no easy task. For that reason, it's a good idea to order an OEM Engine Intake Manifold Gasket from Nissan today, then trust the team of experts at your nearest Nissan service site or dealer to complete the repair.
