It seems that about all sealants are performing well on the Fo8 gaskets, ma=
ybe because there is no need for it? So, most products won't do any harm, b=
ut be aware of anaerobic gasket makers : these can cure very fast, forming =
an elastic layer of some thou thickness : the Fo8 gaskets won't leak, but t=
he cylinderhead gasket will.=20

Once I=E2=80=99ve got the liner landing as clean as I can get it, I use a o=
