Description

When you’re spending long hours in the seat and start smelling diesel fumes or hearing that telltale exhaust leak popping sound, it’s time to check your exhaust gasket. This critical seal keeps hot exhaust gases flowing where they should instead of leaking out around the turbo or manifold connection. A failing gasket not only creates annoying noise and fumes but can also reduce engine performance right when you need your Massey running strong during busy farm seasons.

What You’re Getting

Precision-cut design ensures perfect fit against turbo and manifold surfaces
Heat-resistant material handles extreme exhaust temperatures without burning out or cracking
Multi-layer construction provides reliable sealing under thermal expansion and contraction
Direct replacement for original Massey Ferguson specifications – no modifications needed

Built for Real Farm Work

This exhaust gasket is specifically designed for Massey Ferguson 390T turbo tractors and 398 models from the 300 series. These tractors are workhorses for mid-size farming operations, handling everything from loader work and cultivating to hay operations and transport duties. The turbo setup on the 390T creates higher exhaust temperatures and pressure, making a quality gasket essential for proper sealing.

Made to Last

Turbo tractors work hard and generate serious heat, especially around the exhaust system where temperatures can exceed 1200 degrees. This gasket is engineered to handle that thermal stress and maintain a tight seal season after season. The material composition resists the corrosive effects of diesel exhaust while staying flexible enough to accommodate normal expansion and contraction of engine components.

Installation Notes

Let the engine cool completely before starting work to avoid burns from hot exhaust components. Clean both mating surfaces thoroughly, removing all traces of old gasket material – any residue left behind will cause leaks with the new gasket. Check that your exhaust manifold or turbo housing isn’t warped or cracked while you have it apart. Always use new gaskets when doing exhaust work, as they’re not reusable once removed.
