Installing pan gasket with motor in car

mellow_utah said

do you apply it like bad sport said above, letting it sit overnight or can it go right on there?

You can put it right on, I usually let a gasket set overnight to help keep it from squishing out.

You do have paper though, which I missed in your post, so it may not be an issue. Cork and/or rubber tend to want to squish out when tightening.
