• Press on the fresh gasket to see if it springs back.
• Check the gasket for correct sizing. On a radial seal element, the gasket surface is the inside diameter of
the open end cap.
• Make sure the gasket is seating evenly. If the gasket is not forming a perfect seal, you will NOT have
protection.
• Ensure the sealing surface in the housing is clean, and the filter element is the correct model number. It may
be too short for the housing.
• Identify and rectify the cause of any leaks before replacing the filter element.
