Do I put anything on the oil pan gasket? I am buying the cheap cork rubber multi piece one from Auto Zone if that makes a difference. Do I rub engine oil on it do I soak it in motor oil? This is going on an old pan and old block if that helps.
everytime i put one on my car(s) they ripped when i would re-install them for the second time. i think they're garbage. i've never had a problem with cork. the ones i took off my car lasted 28 years without any leaks. still had the motorcraft label on it tiiJust out of curiosity, was there a reason that you didn't go with the blue silicone 1 piece gasket from Fel-Pro? The things kick butt, seal excellent and are reusable too. Best $32.00 you'll ever spend.
