You say tomato..I use a little copper spray snot on the rear main flange
gasket and timing cover gaskets, and some Yamabond on the little
breather cover gasket in the bellhousing.
The oil pan gasket just get greased.

| OK folks. As I get ready to bolt the engine together I was wondering what the thoughts were on the use of gasket sealant. Some say not to use it at all. Others say to use it to secure the gasket to one part and not on the other. I know that you do not use sealant on the heads but what about parts like the rear bearing? By the way I know that the lower two bolt holes need to be sealed on the rear bearing. What about oil pan and timing cover? Just curious what the consensus is. ...Ian |
