Timing Cover Gasket for Ford Major, Super Major & Power Major Tractors

Description

That oil drip forming at the front of your Major isn’t going to fix itself, and if it’s coming from behind the fan and timing cover, this gasket is what you need to stop it. A failing timing cover gasket doesn’t just make a mess – it’s letting vital engine oil escape while allowing dirt and moisture into your timing gear area. This replacement gasket seals things up tight, keeping oil where it belongs and protecting your engine’s timing components.

What You’re Getting

• Precision-cut gasket designed specifically for Ford Major series timing covers
• Oil-resistant material that handles the heat cycles and vibration of farm work
• Direct replacement for your deteriorated factory gasket – no modifications needed
• Proper thickness ensures correct cover fit and reliable sealing
• Quality construction that maintains its seal through years of temperature changes

Built for Real Farm Work

Your Ford Major, Super Major, or Power Major has earned its keep on your farm through decades of reliable service. These British workhorses handle everything from loader work to field cultivation, and they’re still going strong after 50-plus years. But time and heat cycles eventually take their toll on gaskets, and the timing cover gasket sees it all. This gasket creates the critical seal where your timing gears live, preventing contamination and oil loss.

Made to Last

The quality gasket material resists the compression set that causes old gaskets to leak, maintaining a proper seal through years of heat cycles. At today’s oil prices, even a small leak gets expensive fast, not to mention the engine damage that can occur from low oil levels. This gasket is built to handle the temperature swings and constant vibration that farm equipment endures.

Installation Notes

Clean both mating surfaces thoroughly – any old gasket material or dirt guarantees a comeback leak. Check the timing cover for warpage or cracks while it’s off. Don’t use gasket sealer unless specifically required. Torque the cover bolts evenly in a crossing pattern to ensure uniform gasket compression. While you’re in there, it’s a perfect time to check timing gear backlash and condition.
