Just spray both sides of the gasket with Permatex Copper-Coat, let it tack up, and install as normal.

This is what I do w/ them. The silver spray paint works too though...in case you have a can on the shelf and want to save some money.

Did we graduate from the same school????? Associate degree in the School of Hard Knocks. We didn't have a computer to get others to help on. We had to screw it up all by our selves.
