22rte turbo gasket problem!!!
« on: Jun 23, 2007, 03:11:25 PM »
soooo.  i went to toyota to get a gasket for my oil line where it attaches to the block. and they dont sell it seperate.  it come in a 146 doller kit  and i cant afford that.  sooooooo, my question is cuz im new to turbos and gasket making can i make a gasket out of gasket paper?  i bought some  and some hight tewmp rtv.  i bought the thickest  gasket material they sold at kragen.  is thicker better???  is there a special way to cut the gasket?  i was going to just trace and utility knife it.  is that ok.  any comments or tips would be appricated.  i would hate to have done all this work and have the dang thing leak all the oil and kill the turbo,  or engine( i think i would notice a big leak before it ran dry but you never know).  is the oil drain a low preasure hose??

Just rtv the hell out of it and forget it. Like bf said it is a non-pressure line and don't need much to keep it dry.
