Ensure that the surfaces are clean and dry before installation. Additionally, it is important to apply the appropriate torque value during installation. Generally, a torque of 10-15 Nm is recommended during the installation of the gasket. Periodic checks of the engine coolant and replacement when necessary will ensure the efficient operation of the system. It is also advisable to check the thermostat itself at regular intervals.
