When I first bought this car it had a leakage. I changed the pump and gasket it held for some months till it started leaking. I use the mushroom gasket and gasket cement or whatever it’s called. I’m aware that it needs to be compressed while tightening bolts. But does it need to be compressed to tighten every single bolt?
