Why Choose Genuine Honda OEM?
Genuine Honda OEM parts are manufactured to the same standards as the original components installed at the factory. This means correct dimensions, correct material composition, and guaranteed compatibility — no guesswork, no fitment issues. For a critical sealing component like a gasket, using OEM is always the recommended choice to avoid vacuum leaks, idle instability, and premature failure.
Installation Notes
When replacing the idle valve gasket, ensure the mating surfaces on both the IACV and intake manifold are clean and free of old gasket material before installation. No sealant is required — this gasket is designed to seal correctly when torqued to Honda's factory specification. Refer to the Honda Factory Service Manual (FSM) for your specific model for torque values.
