  • Installing new head gasket

    When installing new head gasket on F9.9msha, do I put the gasket on dry or use gasket sealant?

    Thanks

    Install it dry, no sealant needed.

        HEAD GASKETS THESE DAYS HAVE A COATING EACH SIDE THAT IS THE SEALANT THE FIRST TIME YOU RUN THE MOTOR ON A BOAT OR IN A TANK RUN TILL IT REACHS ITS PROPER TEMPRATURE AND THEN STOP AND LET THE MOTOR COMPLETELY COOL OUT ,LIKE AS IN COLD!! . USING A TORQ WENCH RE TORQ THE HEAD BOLTS AGAIN . YOU COULD FIND SOME OF THE HEAD BOLTS YOU'LL GET A FRACTION OF A TURN MORE ,AND YOU WONT HAVE TO TOUCH IT AGAIN EVER !!
        THE GASKETS GETS COMPRESSED BY THE HEAD AND THE BLOCK WHEN THEY GET HOT AND IF ITS NOT RETORQED IT COULD BLOW AGAIN SOME TIME IN THE NEAR FUTURE .!!!
