[Mk2] [Turbo] Sump Gasket or No Sump Gasket ??

Post by CRAIGROBBO »

Mk2 Turbo (Rev 1/2 Block)

Can someone advise if a dump gasket is required? I know you can buy them but I have heard they are just sealed on also?

Every one I've seen with a gasket has leaked. Toyota just use a sealant from the factory, and they don't leak.

Cheers Guys,

Mine is weaping a little so will whip it off clean the faces and refit with new boots! Or might fit studding as you can get a bit more torque on them.
