Banjo Bolt gaskets

[KennyM]

I'm going to change my lift pump this weekend. I read the procedure in issue #34, it mentioned also changing the gaskets. Can they be used again? or should I wait until I can get some.



Thanks Ken

Ken,



I've reused my gaskets without any problems, but you must maker sure they are clean, and no defects on them. They are also very easy to lose in the engine comparment, so it might be wise to have xtras on hand. If your careful taking the bolts out, and putting them back in, you should have no problems...

I had banjo gaskets disintegrate on a saturday night. Kmart don't sell em'. They do not cost that much to keep on hand.

Thanks for the comments, Some of the local Mason Dixon Guys have some if I get into trouble. Ken
