APEX Automobile Parts Inc Engine Cylinder Head Gasket P/N:AHG127
Renew the seal between the cylinder head and engine block with the APEX Automobile Parts Inc Cylinder Head Gasket AHG537, a Nissan Pathfinder cylinder head gasket listed for 1996-2000 models with the V6-3.3L engine. It is a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications, which also include the 1997-2000 Infiniti QX4 and 1999-2004 Nissan Frontier.
What it does: The head gasket sits between the cylinder head and the block. It is designed to contain combustion pressure and to keep coolant and oil in their own passages as they pass between the two.
Signs it may need replacing: These include unexplained coolant loss, white exhaust smoke, overheating, milky oil, or a misfire. Each of these can have other causes, so diagnose the problem first. If a failed head gasket is the cause, this part replaces it. Consult the vehicle service information for the correct head fasteners and whether the originals may be reused.
