The new 113-6065 Oil Pan Gasket replaced the former 7W-8860 Oil Pan Gasket in all 3116 Engines in all applications. The former oil pan gasket is canceled. The new oil pan gasket is made from a stronger material. The new gasket can be identified by the "tab" that extends to the outside of the gasket about midway on each long side of the gasket. Some 7X-2521 Gasket Kits in the parts system may still include the former 7W-8860 Oil Pan Gasket.Solution:
All 7X-2521 Gasket Kits with date codes "March 94" or later include the new 113-6065 Oil Pan Gasket. Dealers may want to supply a new 113-6065 Oil Pan Gasket with 7X-2521 Gasket Kits that have an earlier date code.COPYRIGHT 1994 CATERPILLAR ALL RIGHTS RESERVED
