Description
If you’ve ever noticed fuel vapors around your sediment bowl or found a puddle of diesel under your tractor, chances are good that little rubber gasket is calling it quits. A worn or hardened gasket not only wastes fuel but can also let dirt and moisture into your fuel system—exactly what your injection pump doesn’t need. Being able to see contamination in your fuel before it reaches the injection system can save thousands in repair costs.
What You’re Getting
- Exact 1-9/16″ O.D. size to seal your sediment bowl properly
- Fuel-resistant rubber that stays flexible in all weather
- Direct replacement—no modifications or guesswork needed
- Quality construction that handles years of fuel exposure without deteriorating
Built for the Workhorses
This gasket fits the classic Ford utility and row-crop tractors that are still earning their keep on farms everywhere. Whether you’re running a 2000 for loader work, a 4000 for cultivating, or any of the older 501 through 901 series tractors, these machines were built to work hard every day. Their mechanical injection systems have zero tolerance for contamination, and the glass sediment bowl is your early warning system—showing you water from condensation, rust from tank deterioration, or dirt from contaminated fuel before it wrecks injectors and pumps.
Made to Last
This isn’t the cheap stuff that hardens up after a season and starts leaking again. The rubber compound is specifically formulated to handle constant diesel exposure, temperature swings, and the vibration that comes with field work. It maintains its seal through countless heat cycles and stays pliable year after year.
Installation Notes
Drain the bowl first, catching fuel in a clean container. Check the rubber gasket—if it’s hard or cracked, replace it to prevent leaks. Clean the metal housing thoroughly; years of debris defeat the purpose of clear visibility. When installing, hand-tighten just enough to compress the gasket without over-tightening, which can distort the seal.
