I've got the cylinders out and honed. I'm doing some final cleanup before reassembly. Whoever did the engine last time used sealant on darn near every gasket, and it's been a bear to clean everything up. My question? Which gaskets go in dry and which get sealant. I'm using an Elring gasket kit which came with a 20 ml tube of "Dirko - S elastic universal sealing compound". Where do I use this besides the head sealing gaskets? TIA Karl Wolz |
