hey do any of you guys have tricks to stop these dsm from leaking fuckin oil..i installed new gaskets and got then nice and tight and the damn retun line still leaks.. i dont get it..the thing leaks no matter what i do.. anyone use high temp silicone. thats my next try..but im too lazy to empty the oil clena it up..then wait a day for it to seal right..

 

coat the gaskets in ultra grey before install

 

Use new gasket, use Ultra Copper. Ultra Grey is useless on this - I have it on mine and it still leaks lil bit. Don't use lockwashers - it will leak, just use the Copper Washers.

Also I am doing this with a next oil change:

"Permatex #2, non-hardening, on the drain flange bolts. Those effers go all the way through, and threads don't seal all the way around- there's always a gap at the "points" of the threads on both the bolt and the nut, and oil's designed to capilary through just that kind of path. Add in the pressure of blow-by, and (as you've found) it'll drive you nuts."
