I've been chasing down some minor oil leaks on my 1990 325i Vert. I just replaced the Oil Pan gasket which cut the oil leaks in half. So I traced the final leak (I hope) to the Oil breather tube. Accordingly I will be pulling the intake manifold to access the breather tube.
I've read many posts on the subject but am a bit confused whether or not to use a gasket sealer when replacing the intake manifold gaskets. Some people use a sealer and some indicate no sealer needed and to just make sure both surfaces are clear of any old gasket. So when I replace the old gaskets should I use a gasket sealer to mate the gaskets to the intake manifold or not?
