Default CVH sump gaskets

Are the single rubber and 2 piece cork gaskets interchangeable? or are there actually two different cvh sumps

Cheers

From what i have experinced they are different - cant tell you exactly which is which but i bought a gasket set from Ford for my Fiesta Turbo asked for cvh gasket and the cork one delivered didnt fit...

So i ordered a rubber one

Be careful when you order - best bet is to take yours off and match it..

When you re-fit it if you use the rubber one use spray glue to stick it on the sump.

then it makes it easy when re-fitting.

Just dont overtighten, nip the bolts up then run up to operating temp check for leaks and then nip up bolts again once.

Im not sure as not worked on one of these - i think your only option is to drop the sump off and then pop to your local motorfactors they will stock the rubber one and you can see if it lines up....

Cant see why it wouldnt but best to try before you buy

i had the rubber one on main haz, i couldn`t get the thing to seal, n matter what i did, i torqued it up correctly as well, but oh no, pissed oil out.

if you want it to seal, i would get some gasket sealent and do it that way, only problem is when you take it off, it will leave a right mess to be cleaned up
