\6 Fel-Pro Oil pan Gasket parts Alignment
Hello All,
I didn't find this issue in a search, so I'm feeling 'special' with my oil pan gasket issue.
The front and rear rubber seals fit only one way. The cork side gaskets don't seam to meet the front and rear rubber sections properly.
Putting the cork under the rubber end wing leaves a gap under the rubber wing like this at the front;
And this at the rear;
The cork gasket doesn't line up with the edge of the rear main seal carrier;
Or the front timing chain cover. If I back up the cork gasket, the pan bolt holes don't line up;
Nothing in the directions said to trim any material to fit, and I can't imagine piling in enough gasket goop to fill this big a hole.
What's up?
