spec called for an unimagineable 160 lb-ft of tourque on the pan bolts. I couldn't for the life of me understand why.
I think the VW spec is 7 lb. ft. That's quite a difference.
I've used aviation permatex or gasketing shellac even on cork gaskets. Is this actually harmful, or is it just a belts and suspenders operation (and of course, making the job of removing the gasket messier in the future?) I certainly know not to use it on VW valve covers.
