Thermostat gasket
I just picked up an OEM thermostat kit (thermostat and gasket) from the local dealer. When I rehab'd my car before I drove it home from Florida, I was stuck using an aftermarket thermostat and gasket.
Anyway, the gasket has a "sticky" side, as in you peel some paper off one of the sides like a sticker. Which side does the "sticky" go on, the pump side or the neck side? I guess I have to use RTV on the gasket, but am I supposed to use it over the sticky side too?
