The 36172-P08-015 solenoid gasket sits between the spool valve assembly and the VTEC Solenoid cap section. After enough heat cycles, the old seal flattens, cracks, or just stops sealing, then you get seepage, grime, and that lovely burnt oil smell on a hot header.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis is an OEM VTEC solenoid base gasket Honda guys actually replace during maintenance because it’s cheap insurance. A proper VTEC solenoid gasket replacement helps keep oil where it belongs and helps avoid VTEC oil pressure issues caused by leaks at the solenoid base. We run these exact gaskets on our own cars whenever we do a valve cover service or chase a mystery leak. It’s the right move for a number of different Honda and Acura chassis. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOEM style fit for the 36172-P08-015 solenoid gasket location\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSeals the VTEC solenoid to the cylinder head so your bay stays cleaner\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHelps prevent oil leaks that can lead to VTEC engagement problems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSmart to replace during oil leak repairs, engine rebuilds, or any VTEC solenoid removal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSimple part, big payoff, no hacks required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eEngine Compatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eC30A, handy for an NSX VTEC solenoid gasket refresh\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eD16Z6, common D series Honda VTEC gasket service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eB16A2, this is the B16A2 solenoid gasket Honda uses at the base\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eB18C1, perfect for B18C1 VTEC gasket replacement on a GSR\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eB18C5\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eH22A\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eVehicle Compatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1995–2001 Acura Integra GS-R \/ Type R, your Acura Integra VTEC gasket fix\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1995–2005 Acura NSX, correct NSX VTEC solenoid gasket application\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1994–1995 Honda Civic Si \/ EX \/ VX\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1999–2000 Honda Civic Si, a straightforward Civic Si VTEC gasket service part\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1994–1997 Honda Del Sol VTEC, correct Del Sol VTEC solenoid gasket\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1994–1995 Honda Del Sol Si\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1995–1996 Honda Prelude Si VTEC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1997–2001 Honda Prelude, common Prelude VTEC solenoid gasket replacement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSKU:\u003c\/strong\u003e OHA-36172-P08-015\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n \n\u003cli id=\"VehicleFitment\"\u003e\n  \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1995–2001 Acura Integra GS-R \/ Type R\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1995–2005 Acura NSX\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1994–1995 Honda Civic Si \/ EX \/ VX\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1999–2000 Honda Civic Si\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1994–1997 Honda Del Sol VTEC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1994–1995 Honda Del Sol Si\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1995–1996 Honda Prelude Si VTEC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1997–2001 Honda Prelude\u003c\/li\u003e \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\u003cli id=\"Included\"\u003e\n(1) VTEC Solenoid Base Gasket\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n","brand":"Honda","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44748266668066,"sku":"OHA-36172-P08-015","price":18.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2218\/5701\/files\/OHA-36172-P08-015_uvai.jpg?v=1768599976","url":"https:\/\/www.hybrid-racing.com\/products\/honda-b-d-h-series-vtec-solenoid-base-gasket-36172-p08-015","provider":"Hybrid Racing","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
