I had a good experience this morning I placed an online order and everything went smoothly. The staff at propel parts has always been helpful in the past when I have been looking for harder to find parts or something that wasn’t listed online.
:) great service
I almost want to cry ;( writing this review because I dont want people to find out about them and rather keep them in my pocket but they deserve it…
This company is great with Quality Products at amazing prices! Sometimes, their website is not the most accurate but is user friendly and if you got questions they will call back and are very prompt in responding via a call or text to verify inventory before placing an order.

Product Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
What does the Caterpillar 3116 Oil Cooler Lines Gasket Kit 1002942 include?
The 1002942 kit is a complete gasket set designed for the oil cooler lines on the Caterpillar 3116 engine (serial numbers 2BK, 4TF, and 98Z). It typically includes all the gaskets and sealing components needed to properly reseal the oil cooler lines during replacement or service ??? eliminating the need to source individual gaskets separately.
Which 3116 engine serial numbers is this gasket kit compatible with?
This kit is specifically designed for Caterpillar 3116 engines with serial number prefixes 2BK, 4TF, and 98Z. Using the correct kit for your engine serial range ensures proper gasket dimensions and material compatibility. If you are unsure which prefix applies to your engine, check the tag on the engine block or reach out to Propel Parts for help verifying fitment.
Why is it important to replace the oil cooler gaskets on the 3116 engine?
Failing oil cooler gaskets can cause coolant to mix with engine oil ??? a very serious condition that rapidly accelerates bearing wear and can lead to catastrophic engine failure. Replacing worn or compressed gaskets at regular service intervals (or any time the oil cooler or lines are disturbed) is essential for engine longevity.
Is this an aftermarket kit, and will it perform as well as the original parts?
Yes, the 1002942 kit is a high-quality aftermarket gasket set that meets or exceeds OEM specifications. The gaskets are manufactured from materials engineered to withstand the operating temperatures and pressures of the 3116 diesel engine, providing reliable sealing performance.
What are the signs that the oil cooler gaskets on a 3116 need replacing?
Watch for milky or discolored engine oil (indicating coolant contamination), coolant level dropping without a visible external leak, white smoke from the exhaust, or overheating. Any of these symptoms warrant immediate inspection of the oil cooler and its associated gaskets and seals.
Can I do the oil cooler gasket replacement myself?
This repair is achievable by an experienced diesel mechanic with proper tools. The process involves draining fluids, removing the oil cooler assembly, cleaning the mating surfaces thoroughly, and installing the new gaskets with care to avoid overtightening or misalignment. Always follow the torque specs in your Caterpillar 3116 service manual.
Where can I find more engine rebuild and overhaul kits for the Caterpillar 3116?
For a more comprehensive engine refresh, Propel Parts also stocks inframe and overhaul kits for the 3116 and other CAT engines. Browse the full catalog of Caterpillar inframe overhaul kits to find matching rebuild components for your engine series.
