I just got done replacing the tophat seal and resealing the pan. they both leak. also the lines leak at the case.
1)I tried using an RTV sealent instead of a gasket on the pan. apparently this didnt work even tho i torqued it to spec. I am going to put a cork gasket on it now but i was wondering if there are any tips for making it less prone to leaking.
2) I just replaced the dipstick tube seal with a BRAND NEW seal. it seems to be "swollen" after i put the dipstick tube back in. can i put any type of sealant on the seal/case/tube?
3)the fittings on the cooler lines at the case leak really bad upon start up. if i take these off and wrap them in pipe tape will it stop that leak or will i have to do something else?
