oil pan gasket sealant application

[Joe K]

I think were I to do it, I would use Perm 2 on the block and around the "hump" where the square gasket goes.

Then place the two side gaskets.

Then put dollops of Perm 2 at the juncture between the side gaskets and the rope seal (front) and the cork seal (back) Sort of placed in the "corners."

Then place the cork seal, embedding it into the dollops at either end.

Then place pan (rope seals in slots at front of course) without a second layer of Perm 2 attaching to gaskets.

You want to be able to drop the pan without ruining the gaskets or the cork.

Well, this unless I found (like you) more leakage.

Then Katie bar the gate when it comes to Perm No. 2 (I.e. do what you need to do.)
