[DeTomaso] Oil Pan gasket install

[asajay at asajay.com]

Hi John

I always use Form-a-Gasket 2B, (black gorilla pucky).  I spread a very  
thin layer (almost invisible) along the entire gasket.  I then use a  
little bit more in the corners when assembling.

It's not RTV, so it's O2 sensor safe.  It doesn't harden the same way  
rtv does or some of those other sealers.  I've also found it makes it  
pretty easy to remove the pan later as well.

So, there's one opinion for you.

btw, you need to take some photos and send them around. :)
