Need to replace the valve cover gasket on my M. Wondering if the I.H. gasket is best put on by itself or should a sealer be used with it also.

I use a little grease on my valve cover gaskets it will help keep them in place. The biggest reason valve cover gaskets leak is from over tightening of the cover when renstalling.

Since the valve cover may need to be removed occasionally for valve adjustment, etc, just stick it to the cover, not the block, and you won't need to buy a new gasket. May not be entirely leak proof though. Your title says head gasket. In that case coat both sides.

Hi, I would put something just to hold it in place at least, I just got done putting mine on, and the gasket slipped inside of the cover and now I have oil seeping out.
