Good morning all, I have a question I hope someone can chime in on before I install my new oil pan.
I bought a new oil pan 12101-61013 and gaskets 12151-61010 and later 12151-61011 as they both are listed as compatible. Here are some pics of the new and old gaskets, neither seem to fit right. I know you need to add some FIPG to the corners. I am curious if the small gaps are expected and will disappear once torqued down? The first couple of pictures are with the 61011 gasket and the last is with the 61010 gasket. I have the orientation marks on the front half too. I flipped the gaskets both ways and the gaps are still there.
Let me know what you think and let me know if I am missing something.
Thanks
