25/10/2019 Some gasket materials are suited for oil and fuels, others made specifically for use with coolant. New cork can stop leaks and keep that factory look if tradition or originality is a concern. A few sheets of gasket material are often less expensive than a single tube of silicone or gasket maker, and a can of Gasgacinch is good to have around for all sorts of uses, one of which is gasket ...

fastener - Is it bad if gasket maker gets into bolt holes ...
09/09/2015 My timing chain cover does not use a solid gasket, instead it relies on gasket maker, which is caulk-like paste. The cover is fastened by something around 20 bolts. I am curious how bad can it be if the gasket maker gets in some of the holes, impeding the bolt grip/torque.
