I'm about to change the oil pan gasket (2001 PT)... the old factory gasket didn't use any RTV to seal it.
It was probably easier in a Factory setting to get a good seal without RTV when the engine was out of the car... but laying on the ground under the car trying to reattach the pan is a little tougher. If you have done this job... did you leave the pan/gasket "dry" or RTV the whole thing or just "tack" the corners? Any Dealer Mechanics out there? What is your SOP? Appreciate any help.

Dont mean to hijack, but I'm tackling this one this weekend. Is the gasket an actual rubberized gasket, or would gorilla glue do the trick (I have completely rebuilt a vw engine using nothing but gorilla.glue and several carbs). Has anyone tries this?
