A few questions:
Are 5920-smeared gaskets just as re-useable as greased ones?
Or don't we know because generally they aren't taken apart, as they haven't failed!
How long does one have to get the gasket on and get it torqued down after the smearing process, bearing in mind one has two smearing processed to perform? I found it a bit difficult getting the stuff even as it's the same colour as the gasket. (But that consisted of moving it about with the finger until it had a recogniseable coverage... even thought it must have been slightly less than uniform)
