Oil pan question

Post by lurch95hatch »

Hey I'm doing an pile pan gasket change and I was just wanting to get some opinions. I have the new gasket and the rtv ultra black sealer. Anyone have Amy recommendations on how to go about it. I have heard both ways about rtv and gaskets, but I figured I would ask anyway. What's the bed way to do this gasket change? Any help is appreciated.

The way honda says to do it. I use Honda bond gasket sealer.


You'll need a torque wrench along with the specs and the sequence for the bolts.

That's just what I thought, good thing I bought rtv with it. And I have a torque wrench and it should be about 8ftlbs in to out in opposite sides.
