Tempest AGB-20371-PMA
The Tempest AGB-20371 (McCauley OEM B-20371) is an FAA-PMA overhaul gasket cover for McCauley applications.
- Helps prevent external oil leaks by restoring the intended seal at the cover interface.
- Supports consistent governor performance by reducing the risk of internal bypass or pressure loss caused by a torn, hardened, or compressed gasket.
- Common replacement during disassembly and overhaul because gasket compression set and surface damage can occur with service cycles.
This gasket supports aviation maintenance and overhaul workflows where OEM part numbers are used to confirm exact interchangeability.
Installation notes
These notes are general guidance only; always refer to the approved maintenance and overhaul manual for complete installation procedures.
- Ensure both mating faces are clean and flat. Remove old gasket residue without scratching the sealing surface.
- Use the approved torque value and tightening pattern to avoid cover distortion and uneven compression.
Applications and fitment
Used on McCauley governor assemblies where OEM B-20371 is specified. Confirm eligibility by matching the OEM part number and reviewing governor model and serial number applicability in approved maintenance data.
