To use this gasket, first make sure the surface where you'll install it is clean and dry. Place the gasket carefully on the oil pan clean - out area. When tightening the bolts, do it evenly to ensure a proper seal. You don't need to use any gasket sealers, and there's no need to re - torque. Keep it in a cool, dry place when not in use. If you notice any signs of wear or damage, replace it promptly to avoid leaks.
