Gasket for blue top 4age sump

Postby trdnut » Thu Feb 09, 2006 11:31 am

Hi has anyone had this problem,
I currently have a 4age blue top and the sump gasket is leaking like crazy, according to toyota there is no gasket there just a sealer, is this true?

The sump gasket you can get for it comes in the bottom end gasket kit and only goes between the block and the metal thingie (oil slop/surge tray?). There is no gasket for the sump itself. I've used gasket goo for both.
