This is an authentic manufacturer-sourced part which is specially designed for use with Briggs and Stratton engines commonly installed on lawn and garden equipment. The purpose of this gasket is to provide a tight seal for the cylinder head plate. Unfortunately, over time it will wear out and it may begin to crack eventually requiring a replacement to ensure peak performance. Keep in mind this high-quality gasket is made of durable composite material and is sold individually. Please make sure to check the diagrams of your model for the exact location and application of this component.

I removed the valve cover, rocker arms, and valve springs in order to remove the head plate. Then I replaced the gasket and reassembled the other parts in reverse order along with a new valve cover gasket. I also had to adjust the valves.
