Im about to bolt up my replacement oil pan and I have a question about the liquid gasket maker (HondaBond). I have to put it on the matted surface side of the oil pan but i dont know if I should fill the groove in the oil pan then lay the regular gasket over it or if I should just place the gasket in the grooves and then lay the liquid gasket (hondabond) on top of it?

 

i just had the problem when i put my moroso pan on. i used a gasket and applied it to the top make sure u torque it to specs or itll leaqk this is my 3rd gasket. lol and make sure surface is clean and dry.
