Oil pan is off again! I need a leak proof gasket seal. Thoughts?

[bennington28]

Installed oil pan without cork gasket- used high quality yamabond. Let it set before bolting the pan up. It had some leaks, so I took it back off and cleaned up the mess. That stuff is hard to scrape off.

I bought a cork gasket. Should I use sealer w/ the cork gasket? Should I put the sealer on one side of the cork gasket or both? Should I even use sealer w/ the cork gasket at all?

a little mr gasket never hurt, just go easy on it so you don't get some in the oil pan, wouldn't be a good thing to get stuck in the oil passages

It's best to use the Toyota FIPG sealer. Nothing will work better...
trust me on this one.
