Default Re: Gaskets

On most paper and cork gaskets I put a very thin coating of Hylomar Blue on each side of the gasket. Hylomar Blue is a non-hardening silicone based gasket sealer. I don’t use it anywhere it might contact gasoline, for example carb to manifold (I use copper gaskets there anyhow, but there are paper gaskets available).

Flywheel housing to clutch housing there should be minimal oil anyhow, so dry.

It isn't a defect, it's a feature!
