Opinion on permatex high tack for cooler gaskets

iowacornfarmer · Feb 17, 2017

Basically what the title says, I'm looking to see if anyone out there has used this on the oil cooler gaskets. I'm also putting on a moroso oil pan and their thick blue gasket. Would you use it? I've had great luck with high tack in the past but if I shouldn't use it I won't.

You shouln't need it on any o'ring type gasket/seal. On flat type gaskets it works well, maybe too well when and if you have to take it apart, I use a medium or low tack normally unless it is on something that I have had a problem with gasket creep.

I didn't use anything on mine.

The blue moroso may leak. Just use the Navistar grey rtv gasket for the oil pan.

I've heard good things about the moroso gasket, although the tried and true method is Ford / Navistar goop. I've already got it so I'll use it and we'll see how it works
