Front cover - Should I use gasket sealant?

Turtled · Dec 12, 2011

2nd question of the day....

P38 4.6 V8 2000

I'm planning to get the front cover cleaned up and re-fit tonight. Should I be fitting the gasket dry, or with sealant?

The workshop manual doesn't mention sealant, but I'm not sure which way to go....

Cheers in advance

A new gasket already has a bead of sealant on it if it is a genuine one, and assuming it's the same as the 4.0 Thor front end.
