No mather how many Yam gaskets you use but remember to
NOT use COMETICS gaskets... Good for toilet seat use only ...

Has anyone used copper gasket spray when stacking gaskets or are they installed dry.

 

[Blue shadow]

Installed dry with no problems

I have done 4 sleds, stacking 3 new gaskets, cheaper than the shim too. Since with the shim you still have to by 1 gasket and take it apart plus the cost of the shim. The 3 gasket is very close to the same as the shim setup. 1 of the sleds is mine, 2000kms, 1 is dealers 2500kms, the other I know are stilling running fine, don't know the mileage. Have couple of buddies in Southern BC with the same setup and alot more kms with no probelms.
