FelPro Intake Manifold Gaskets - Superior Design

Had to replace my gaskets because upon removal, the slide-fit gasket rings warped significantly and even tore. Note these have like under 10k miles on them.
Found these fel-pro replacements to be a much better design, with a single thick piece of steel with rubberized coating and gaskets baked in.



However, the plenum gaskets are junk. Basically glorified wax paper. Throwing them out in favor of the factory style MLS.

 

Part number?

 

MS 95898

 

Awesome, thank you and good looking out!

 

Just to add, the felpro spark tube gaskets are pretty terrible as well.

 

My mechanic put those in and they were leaky garbage. Fell right off when I pulled the valve covers.

 

Yup, even the valve cover gasket are horrible. I had to redo it all with OEM. No leaks since.

 

Since we're naming other gaskets of theirs, Ive been running their head gaskets for a while with no issues. Those felt like OEM quality, just blue, but I got a great deal on them and that was my first experience with the brand

Edit: actually I'm pretty sure I'm running their valve cover/spark plug gaskets as well, so not sure why others are having issues

 

I’m about to hit 2 years with the felpro head gaskets as well and so far so good. Had I had more time I would’ve installed OEM but I had a unique situation which kept me from that.

 

@treyus30 is there a reason you are replacing the gaskets? did you notice something? reason I ask is I have them and thinking this may be the reason I have random idle issues (air leak)

 

I usually go for MAHLE if OEM isn't available (or just bad), but Fel-Pro is usually a decent third option.

 

I pulled the old ones to replace knock sensors and put them back in. Huge mistake, major leakage
