Hello All:

1967 Volvo 122S Wagon. I have been into the timing gear case a couple of times this year and the joint between the bottom of the case's aluminium cover and the oil pan is severely compromised. The gasket was basically shot when I went in but now there is almost nothing there. I am losing a small amount of oil and the leaking has just got to stop.

I have heard of some people using some kind of silicone gasket squirt gunk. Can anyone recommend what to get? In order to apply it, can I just squeeze it into the gap or do I have to remove the timing gear case cover again? I would hate to drain and remove the radiator for the 486th time this year.

Cheers,

Jeff Pucillo
