Engine3524B (S/N: CND1-449; NPM1-569)A new integral seal is now available for certain 3524B Engines. A new gasket design using a metal carrier with edge bonded rubber sealing has been introduced for 3524B Engines for the front engine to rear housing, and the rear engine to front housing joints.This gasket eliminates the need to retorque these housings after an initial run in period. The new 503-0090 Integral Seal (gasket) is thicker than the current 309-4550 Gasket, the existing 345-0592 Flywheel Housing, and 345-0594 Front Drive Housing can be reworked to install the new gasket.The new integral seal is adaptable to the products within the listed serial numbers.The new and former part numbers are listed in Table 1.
