Water Pump Kit - Sierra
18-3147

Q1: Is the quad oil seal included in this kit?
Q2: Doesn't it make sense to have the upper unit water tube seal and orings part of this water pump kit instead of ONLY having it as part of the upper unit seal kit??

google search comes up BLANK for a list of part #'s included in this kit. I count 2 small orings...so either it's missing the quad seal and one vent/ drain plug seal or the quad seal is just not part of this kit???

I think the quad ring is the little one in the middle, I think the other small ring is the bottom drain plug gasket. One is soft the other hard.

Can't help you on part 2.

2 are O rings,
3 top cover seal
4 drain plug washer
Guessing the one circled is the quad seal

CONFIRMED!!
This kit contains a single gasket which fits the drain and vent plug.
Good thing I purchased a pack of 5 gaskets locally :)
