So I bought a Haynes manual and it says that if the timing cover is removed, the oil pan had to be removed also and that requires pulling the engine.
Of course I read this after pulling the cover, and I don’t have time to pull engine & reinstall.
After looking at it, can I clean everything up really well and use RTV in addition to the gasket to seal it?
I watched a video where they used red RTV to seal up a timing cover without pulling engine.
My question is can I seal the cover & reinstall, will it leak, and what type is sealant should I use?
Thanks
