Is it possible for a mechanic to put pump gasket in backwards?

It's possible for a mechanic to put a pump gasket in backwards, especially if they are unfamiliar with the particular configuration of the pump. This can lead to the gasket not sealing properly and causing leaks. Additionally, if the gasket is not properly seated, it may cause the pump to operate inefficiently or even cause damage to the pump itself. To ensure that the pump gasket is installed correctly, it is recommended that the mechanic follows the manufacturer's instructions and uses a gasket specifically designed for the model of pump being serviced.
