Liquid Gasket (FIPG)

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.

FIPG is used for some parts in the engine. It is necessary to pay attention to an application amount, application procedure and applied surface condition for this gasket to fully achieve its purpose.

Too small amount causes leakage while too much amount squeezes out to block or narrow water and oil passages. Therefore, it is absolutely essential to apply a correct amount of liquid sealant continuously without break to eliminate leakage from joints.

FIPG used for engine parts hardens reacting with moisture in the air, and is usually used for metal flanges.

CAUTION: Reapply the FIPG with care to the followings.

Completely remove the old FIPG including the residue in gaps of parts.
Using Mitsubishi genuine parts cleaner (MZ100387) or equivalent, degrease the FIPG application surface carefully.
According to the FIPG application procedures, apply it accurately.
