High Temp RTV on Exhaust Gaskets John 11-19-2006
I recently ran into another case where someone sealed exhaust gaskets
with red high temperature RTV silicon sealant. I do not know off hand
what the temperature rating is for RTV but it has to be way lower than
what the exhaust flange sees. I'll say the flanges and gaskets (the
thick spirotalic no blo style) were not leaking. Am I right in
thinking the lack of leakage is due more to the gaskets working as
required than the RTV?
