Moderator mervin Posted January 8, 2009 Moderator Share Posted January 8, 2009 hmm gaskets get compressed in use most times you are lucky and can reuse them, if it already has silicone on it it would appear it has been used before, maybe clean all the faces of the metal and apply another thin coat of silicon or gasket cement of some type yamaha bond is good i am told merv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
