Ross et al,
I would recommend Permatex's new aerosol sealer, "The Right Stuff."
It looks like a can of spray cheese.
*Attention wealthy LBC Owners!Do not leave this sealer near the Canape
tray during your fabulous soirees!*
When installing a valve cover gasket, I always seal the gasket to the
valve cover only. That keeps it out of the way, and yet anchors it
securely for a non-slip re-installation.
