Re: what is this (took oil pan off)
looks like excess gasket material.. RTV to be more specific. .
Thats why your not suppose to slap a ---- load of RTV all over the oil pan gasket |
Re: what is this (took oil pan off)
only stuff on the pan gasket was grey.. i did use that color on the valve cover though, but it looks like a small ring of whatever it is. guess i should pull it out..

The reason I am saying this is honda does not use red RTV, they use some white factory crap. |
Re: what is this (took oil pan off)
Well it is obviously not OE or from the oil. Have you taken it out yet? What is it made of? What does it feel like, stretchy, soft ect.
Looks just like orange RTV. Even it it was in the head the oil drains back to the pan from there. |
Re: what is this (took oil pan off)
its a z6 with 163k hard miles on it, i got it from some guy in a trade who seems to have neglected it, he was too lazy to even fix the hanging busted muffler, and kicked the ---- out of the front end when the hood wouldnt latch. it has great compression so who knows. its bout to get its ass molested with junkyard love.
ill pull whatever that is out when i wake up crap i got in another trade thats going in https://i114.photobucket.com/albums/n263/7808/balls.jpg |
