Scotch?? I do have this one sitting in the cabinet.
This is my brand. It's cheap, but smooth.

Got my Octi's installed Friday, then met up with Dan and purchased the center caps for them. They look great on the car!
Think I'm going to attempt the Oil Filter Adapter Gasket tomorrow. She's had a small leak the last few months.

This is in reference to his post on Face Book, no homo.
hahaha, haven't been on the forums all day so I just saw this.
Changed the Oil Filter Adapter Gasket today. That, oil change, burping, etc....4 hours. It's done and....knock on wood....good so far. About to go out to dinner and drive it. We'll see how that goes.

I know how that could've been prevented..
Oh nevermind..
Good luck.
Got the radiator and upper hose installed today, threw in a new radiator cap too(OO-lala). Had to apply heat to the lower trans line but it did come out in one piece. No leaks and seems to be doing well. While we were in there replaced the o-ring on the xover cap and installed a new clamp on the exhaust. I had some random rattling and found that one had partially rusted out causing both the rattle and a exhaust leak, it was after the 3rd cat on the drivers side.
So a very productive day for the old girl.

Yeah but a Block Heater just doesn't melt snow and no way I was going to be up all night shoveling what the plows leave. Then they actually dug my street up too as it must be new Snow Plow driver

I'd try Right Stuff, just lay it in the housings channel. The can already has a fine tip nozzle on it. Heat wont be an issue with it because its designed for engine gasket use
They make a cheap generic version, but I've never used it. Right Stuff is about $17-18 a can. 1 can will do both lights with some to spare

Nearly finished up the stereo install, I did manage to get the 0 gauge power wire through the factory grommet! Need to finish up the drivers side door.

Did a little more disassembly on the '97 yesterday. Took the kick panel trim off so I can put it on the '95 because it's in much better shape and the chrome strip is shinier. That's about it. Still having loose connection issues with my headlights. But I'll get it sorted out eventually. Going to have to make a run to the local salvage yard some time and look for a power antenna and some other little stuff.

I found this in an old hardware store, made by DAP. Glued the lense on then ran a 1/2" bead sealing the lense to the housing. Are you talking about Gen 1? Cut or cooked off the lense?
