Hey guys over the years I've installed several rear main seals on my magnum engines and some have leaked which is annoying on a brand new engine. I used to just put Loctite in the groove and then press the seal in but this has leaked several times for me.
The last one I did I placed a generous amount of gasket sealant in the groove and then press the seal in and it didn't leak. Don't know if I got lucky or this is the correct way to do it.
Could someone please confirm the best way they have found.
I have noticed in the kit there is a little white funny shaped piece of plastic. Not sure if this is to be used to spread the sealant.
