Preventing oil leaks

By Larry F - 12/01/2002 1:39:13 PM; IP 216.174.158.170

I know this is a bit of a trivial question , but does a person use some type of gasket silicone or sealer on gaskets before assembly? I'm using Fel Pro gaskets and the instructions say that I don't need anything else other than at the intake corners. My rebuild books say use a thin line of silicone. What about the oil pan? Can I just lay it on the pan rail and bolt it up with nothing on it? I really don't feel like pulling the motor again to fix these leaks. Is there anyone out there who makes rubber valve cover gaskets? Help? Thank you in advance.

This thread, so far...
