Which Permatex For Fast Oil Pan Gasket Making

[stchman]

Hello.

I have to put a new oil pan on a 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe with a 2.4L engine. Apparently there is a crack by the drain plug.

I ordered the oil pan and you must make your own gasket.

I would like to know what will make a leak free gasket the quickest. I've heard Permatex Right Stuff 90 minute black gasket maker. I just don't want to have to wait 24 hours to fill the vehicle with oil.

Me too.

Right Stuff, is the right stuff.

I believe what Permatex is saying is that if you can wait 90 min, you’ll have a better seal in an oily environment than if you use the quick Right Stuff. Their help line is awesome if you want to phone them.

Yep. The Right Stuff is the way to go. You just do not make any mistakes where you have to take it apart again. That’s a different story…

You're going to need this. It makes life much, MUCH easier!

Put down a 4mm wide bead. Assemble immediately barely finger tight. WAIT ONE HOUR before tightening all the way.

It even says that in the Permatex instructions.

not with the right stuff. the 5 minute stuff says to bolt together and immediately return to service. i have never done the finger tight and wait an hour with right stuff. my LS oil pan and transfer case are leak free, as are the 20 or so LS oil pans i’ve done at work and the many LS swaps i’ve done.

Forget about the 5 minute stuff. You need more time to get the oil pan in position. Get the 90 minute stuff.

depends on how fast you work. i apply in my lap, slide under and bolt them up. milwaukee M12 ratchet (not fuel) is perfect 22ft/lbs at stall with fresh battery. i dont torque much unless its something internal to a engine or or it spins.

If the OE Hyundai RTV is still 1217H, it generally cures pretty quickly. Couple hours is usually all it takes.

Not a huge fan of any Permatex RTV’s.

Right Stuff is very overpriced for RTV in my experience. Any good brand RTV, regardless of colour, will work great. Just follow the directions.

Is there no gasket you can buy?

Right Stuff is the only Permatex I’ll mess with outside of OEM ThreeBond.

I used Right Stuff 90 minute on my valve covers - calls for a small amount in the corner where it always leaks. Not leaking yet.

Another vote for it. It's all I use and when coupled with proper surface prep (clean, no oil) it has NEVER failed me.

Clean surfaces, apply and tighten immediately and you're good to go.

I'm curious why you're not a fan?


What are your thoughts on the fast set 1217H

Also do you know if these are the same, just labeled differently?


Three Bond 1217

AB1217H

I ended up using the Permatex The Right Stuff 90 minute gasket maker. I got it from Walmart.

It seemed to work quite well. No leaks so far.

For the valve cover gasket and an inner CV boot (which would leak a small amount of CV grease when driving at 140km/h), I used Versachem megablack RTV.
In both applicatons the megablack RTV worked great!
