Water Pump Gasket - 7-Hole for the cooling system on Land Rover 4-cylinder military engines.

This gasket seals the mating face between the water pump body and the engine block on 2.25L military engine variants fitted with the 7-stud water pump mounting pattern. It prevents coolant leaks at the pump-to-block joint and should be replaced whenever the water pump is removed or refitted. Not interchangeable with the civilian 9-stud water pump gasket (part 538671).

Frequently asked questions

What does the Water Pump Gasket – 7-Hole (542218) seal?
The 7-hole water pump gasket (542218) seals the mating face between the water pump body and the engine block on the 2.25L military engine variant in Land Rover Series II/IIA/III and military Defender models. It prevents coolant leaks at the pump-to-block joint on the 7-stud mounting pattern.
Is this the same gasket as the civilian Series 2/3 water pump gasket?
No. The military 2.25L engine uses a 7-stud water pump mounting pattern, requiring the 7-hole gasket (542218). The civilian 2.25L engine uses a 9-stud pattern and a different, non-interchangeable gasket. Confirm your engine is military specification before ordering.
Does this also fit the military specification Defender?
Yes. The 7-hole gasket (542218) fits the 2.25L military engine variant in both Series II/IIA/III and military specification Defenders. Confirm that your Defender has the military engine specification, as civilian Defenders typically used the 9-stud water pump layout.
