More timing chain questions...where to seal
Hi all.
Did you guys use FIPK on the bottom and top of the TC cover? I am assuming so since there is no gasket for that area. __________________ "May you be in heaven a half an hour before the devil knows you're dead" 1992 4x4 PU |

you are supposed to put where any two metals join. such as the corners of the timing cover, on the top, where it meets the head.
since the oil pan is sealed with the FIPK, you use it all around the lower portion of the timing cover. I have put it all around the top side of the cover, so the head gasket stays put when assembling. no leaks! __________________ Wristy check the FAQ! 1980 RN37  1989 RN101  1986 RN64  Quote:

Right. So, anywhere that a gasket is not used.
That is what I assumed. __________________ "May you be in heaven a half an hour before the devil knows you're dead" 1992 4x4 PU |

Anywhere a gasket isn't used would be correct. I actually did my last one entirely with FIPK (not reccomended) and it worked just fine. I put it on and let it set up for about 15 minutes before install, not sure if it helps or if it's a bad idea but it becomes a lot less liquid-ish.
