This might belong in the stupid question thread but,

78 stock F.I.

Getting ready to replace my cold start valve. Does the gasket get installed dry or should I coat it with a bit of something? I have the paper-ish gasket from BD.

Searched Bentley, archives and elsewhere to no avail.

Thanks!

I used a thin cost of Permatex gasket sealant on both sides. I've done this several times on the CSV. Works like a charm.
