Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) Quick gasket question...

[JGheen]

Hey guys,

I called Cummins West this morning to have them send me a oil pick-up tube gasket for my oil pan gasket R&R this weekend and as always they asked me for the engine serial number, which I didn't have handy. But are all the pick-up tube gaskets the same on '94-'98 12v's? The parts guys had to ask a couple other people if the gasket he had was the right one, but he said it was for a '96 12v, so will that one work for my '98 12v? He also said that some gaskets were different, but I don't see why they would be, it should be just a gasket that looks like a miniture Chevy thermostat housing gasket, right?

Please let me know, so I can make sure they are sending me the right gasket.



Thanks guys, Joe

Some Felpro gaskets have the oil pickup tube gasket molded to the oil pan gasket. Some of which have Cummins part # stamped on them. .



Either should work, but I wouldn't "double-deck" if the oil pan gasket has one "attached. "

Great Andy, thanks!



No, my oil pan gasket I got from Cummins doesn't have a pick up molded to it, so I guess the one they are sending me should work, only cost $1. Even if it doesn't work I guess I could run to the dealer in an emergency on Saturday.
