Toyota 04112-40080-71 Engine Valve Grind Gasket Kit 2TD20

Overview

The 04112-40080-71 GASKET KIT, ENGINE VALVE GRIND is a Toyota-spec replacement gasket set for valve grind and cylinder head service on Toyota forklift engines. Whenever a cylinder head is removed for valve lapping, decarbonising or head gasket renewal, the sealing components that cannot be reliably reused — head gasket, valve cover gasket, intake and exhaust manifold gaskets and associated seals — should be replaced in the same service. This kit consolidates those consumable gaskets under a single part number, so technicians can complete a valve grind job without sourcing individual pieces. Ordering the 04112-40080-71 for 02-2TD15 and the other supported models means the engine is resealed with components made to Toyota’s original dimensions and material specification.

Compatibility

This engine valve grind gasket kit covers a range of Toyota internal combustion forklifts:

• 02-2TD series diesel forklifts, spanning the 02-2TD15 through 02-2TD25 capacity range
• 02-2TG series gasoline forklifts, covering the 02-2TG20 and 02-2TG25
• 2TD20

Always verify fitment against the model and serial (chassis) number on the data plate, as Toyota reused similar designations across production years. If in doubt, send us your truck number and our parts specialists will confirm whether the 04112-40080-71 is correct for your machine.

Quality and Reliability

Gaskets are small parts with a big responsibility: they must hold combustion pressure, engine oil and coolant in their own circuits at full operating temperature, heat cycle after heat cycle. A valve grind gasket set with incorrect dimensions or the wrong facing material can weep oil, lose compression or allow oil and coolant to mix — undoing the value of the overhaul itself. This kit is supplied as a Toyota-spec replacement, produced to match the original components fitted to the engine at the factory, so sealing performance after a valve grind matches Toyota’s engineering intent.

Installation and Maintenance Tips

• Replace, do not reuse. Head, manifold and valve cover gaskets compress once; refitting a used gasket almost always results in a leak.
• Prepare surfaces properly. Remove all old gasket material and carbon without scratching or gouging the head and block faces.
• Check for warpage. Before fitting the new head gasket, verify the cylinder head is flat within the tolerance stated in the Toyota service manual.
• Torque in sequence. Tighten head and manifold fasteners to the specified values and stages, working from the centre outward.
• Complete the service. Refill fluids, bleed the cooling system and recheck fasteners and fluid levels after the first engine run.
