The MPI Automotive EMG167 is an extractor/manifold gasket listed to fit the Mazda 323 (Laser KC/KE platform) with the 1.6-litre engine. It's the flat seal between the cylinder head and the extractor or factory manifold — the gasket, not the header itself.

What does this gasket seal?

The EMG167 seals the joint where the extractor or factory manifold meets the cylinder head on the 1.6-litre four. Its job is to keep exhaust gas inside the runner rather than leaking at the flange. It's a small, replaceable consumable that sits between two machined faces and takes the full heat cycle of the exhaust every time the engine warms and cools.

When do you renew an extractor gasket?

An extractor gasket is renewed whenever that head-to-manifold joint is opened — new extractors, a head off, or chasing a leak — because heat cycling hardens the old material so it won't reseal cleanly. A tired gasket ticks or hisses under throttle and can let fumes past the flange. It doesn't change how the engine runs; it simply keeps the joint gas-tight through the engine's heat cycles, which is why fitting a fresh one with any manifold work is standard practice.

Will it suit my Mazda 323?

The EMG167 is listed to fit the Mazda 323 on the 1.6-litre engine. Other capacities and head castings take different gaskets, so confirm your exact engine and flange pattern with the workshop before ordering — feed data on small parts like this can be imperfect, so we treat the listing as the starting point.

What does fitting involve at our Illawarra workshop?

Oak Flats Muffler Men fits 323 extractors and gaskets in-house across the Illawarra. The job means cleaning both faces back to bare metal, checking the flange is flat and not warped, and tightening evenly so the gasket seals without being pinched or distorted. The EMG167 is supplied by MPI Automotive at an RRP of $13.48; contact us to confirm fitment and book the bay.
