Frequently Asked Questions

What does the FEL-PRO fuel pump mounting gasket do?

It seals the joint between the fuel pump, or a block-off plate, and its mounting surface on the engine. This helps keep fluid from seeping out at that flange.

Does the FEL-PRO 6579 fit the 1988-1998 Chevrolet C1500 5.0L / 5.7L / 6.2L / 6.5L / 7.4L?

Yes, it is listed for those engines, along with the 1988-1998 Chevrolet K1500 5.0L / 5.7L / 6.2L / 6.5L and the 1987-1995 Jeep Wrangler 2.5L / 4.0L / 4.2L. Check the "Vehicles it fits" section for your exact engine.

What are the signs this gasket may need replacing?

Wetness or seepage around the fuel pump mounting flange can mean the gasket has failed. Diagnose the source of any leak before you replace parts.

How many gaskets does my vehicle need?

The quantity required varies by application. Check the "Vehicles it fits" section for the amount your vehicle uses.

Any installation tips?

Clean both mating surfaces before installing the gasket. Consult the vehicle service information for the correct fasteners, torque values and whether the fasteners may be reused.
