[QUOTE="Beerj, post: 739409, member: 10035"] Got my trans from PTC and the pan leaked right away. Found a hunk of oily dirt between the trans and gasket, no big deal, **** happens. I didn't have a gasket on hand so laid down a bead of rtv. Reassembled and still leaked at the pan. Pulled it again and went with a moroso gasket since I had good luck with them before. Torqued to spec and it leaked again. Said screw it and snugged them up real good which slowed it but still dripped a little. I just installed my temp sender in the pan and would like to seal it up so it's, well, sealed for the last time. What's the general consensus here? Gasket or rtv? Both surfaces are perfectly clean and wiped down with acetone as they were on the previous attempts. Also, closely inspected the trans and pan. No cracks, gouges etc and they appear to be perfectly flat as far as I can tell. [/QUOTE]
