Neep91 Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 Hi folks been told that you need to put sealer on the rocker cover gasket (currently blowing oil even with new gasket) where abouts do people put the sealer, all round or just certain areas?? Also is instant gasket best sealant to use? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Starlet__SR Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 Shouldn't have to put any sealer on a new gasket. Is it an OEM or a pattern part? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
00joeindastarb0 Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 I've done mine three times recently I think the increased crankcase pressure makes them more prone to leaking. The last time I had a go I just put a small amount of sealant at either side of where they go over the cams. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
