To reuse or to not reuse copper oil pump gasket - that is the question
Building a motor too late into the night, and so I go ahead and install the oil pump without the pump shaft. The pump came with a copper gasket. Instructions for the pump say DO NOT REUSE the copper gasket. Can I take the pump off, install the shaft, and REUSE the copper gasket? Is the threat of it not sealing and letting air into the system real? Am I just being silly? Thanks.
