It should also be replaced if the old gasket is compressed, torn, swollen, hardened, leaking, or damaged during removal. A reused or poorly seated gasket can allow water intrusion at the transom\/pivot housing connection and may lead to repeat service work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eClean both mating surfaces fully before installing the new gasket, removing old gasket material, salt buildup, corrosion residue, grease, and debris without gouging the sealing faces. Inspect the pivot housing, transom shield, bolt holes, bellows area, and surrounding hardware before reassembly. Tighten the mounting hardware using the Volvo Penta service manual procedure for the specific drive and transom assembly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAlternate\/Superseded Part Numbers\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e3889788\u003c\/strong\u003e — Volvo Penta pivot housing mounting gasket\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e3883572\u003c\/strong\u003e — older Volvo Penta reference; verify by serial number and diagram before substitution\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eParts Desk Insight\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis gasket is inexpensive compared with the labour involved in pulling and reinstalling a Volvo Penta sterndrive.
