    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

The subject line pretty much says it all. On the Versah replacement head gasket there dosen't seem to be any indication as to which end is the top and which end is the bottom. Any thoughts? Thanks,

Alex
 
What does your manual say??? Most gaskets I have replaced suggest that the side with imprinted numbers or manufacturers name goes UP.

I have a GS550ES and I noticed in my Clymer manual that it does instruct to install it with the numbers up. Check your manual if you have one.

The problem with the Versah is that there is no T or any numbers to indicate which side is the top side. According to the clymer manual there should be a T on the head gasket and that is the top side. I know that some people have used the Versah gasket kits and I'm curious as to what they did to decide which side was the top.

Alex
 
WOW no marks is a problem. Perhaps you can call them and see if there is another way they can help you figure out which side is up ???
 
Most likely it doesn't matter which side is up.
 
The cylinder base gasket has a bottom or top. I don't think the head gasket does as long as everything lines up.
