[QUOTE="lavacarancher, post: 1311688, member: 9198"] Personally I use some sort of gasket sealer on everything but I guess my favorite is the weatherstrip cement in yellow or black. I call that stuff yellow (or black) death. It's a beach to get off if you ever have to remove the cover but it almost never leaks. Apply the sealer to the parts, put the gasket in place and install the part. Do not tighten the bolts, just put the bolts in the holes and let the sealer dry for a few minutes before torquing them down. The gasket will squeeze out from between the two parts if you don't let the sealer dry a little while before torquing. Rubber gaskets are especially bad about that. [/QUOTE]
