Incorrect surface preparation, skipping a head skim when required,\n      using old stretch bolts, or not following the correct torque sequence can lead to immediate gasket failure, coolant loss,\n      oil contamination and serious engine damage.\n    \u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\n      For this reason, head gaskets should only be fitted by a suitably qualified and properly equipped workshop that can pressure test,\n      measure warpage, follow the manufacturer’s torque procedure and verify that the cooling system and lubrication system are operating\n      correctly after installation.\n    \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n  \u003cdiv class=\"engine-parts-return-warning\"\u003e\n    \u003ch2\u003eEngine Parts Return Policy Warning\u003c\/h2\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\n      Engine gaskets and sealing components are sensitive items. Once the inner packaging is opened, the gasket handled,\n      test-fitted or installed, it is no longer considered unused. In line with common supplier policies, opened or fitted\n      engine parts are generally non-returnable unless an incorrect item was supplied and it remains unused, clean and in its\n      original, undamaged packaging.\n    \u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\n      Please double check your Chevrolet Spark model, year, engine code \u003cstrong\u003eB12D1\u003c\/strong\u003e and OE numbers\n      \u003cstrong\u003e25181250 \/ 25184663\u003c\/strong\u003e before opening the packaging of this cylinder head gasket \u003cstrong\u003eHS-GM-C023\u003c\/strong\u003e.\n      If you are unsure, contact us first so we can help confirm the correct part for your vehicle.\n    \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n","brand":"ARCO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51517114057019,"sku":"HS-GM-C023","price":455.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0703\/3480\/8379\/files\/cylinder-head-gasket-chevrolet-spark-12-b12d1-hs-gm-c023.jpg?v=1785401235","url":"https:\/\/gunmansa.co.za\/hi\/products\/cylinder-head-gasket-chevrolet-spark-12-b12d1-hs-gm-c023","provider":"GUNMANSA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
