Using this Turbo XS exhaust manifold gasket is quite straightforward. First, make sure your vehicle is turned off and has cooled down. Remove the old gasket from the exhaust manifold to 3 - bolt up pipe area. Then, carefully place the new gasket in position, aligning it properly with the bolts. Tighten the bolts gradually and evenly to ensure a good seal. When it comes to maintenance, regularly check the gasket for any signs of wear or damage. If you notice any leaks or the gasket seems to be deteriorating, it's time to replace it. And always remember the California Prop 65 warning. Avoid breathing in exhaust fumes, don't let the engine idle longer than needed, service your car in a well - ventilated place, and keep your hands clean by wearing gloves or washing them often when working on the vehicle.
