Camshaft gear cover gasket

Post by Buzz »

Gentlemen, Do I need to order the original paper gasket or can I use Loctite 518 as I do for the portal axle housings? I know I don't want get back there for another ten years if I can avoid it! Thanks

I just looked up the tech specs for Loctite 518. It's is specifically recommended for gear box and engine casings. I'll let everyone know if I it does not work.
