    Screwed up the job on my car this weekend with a big leak between the trans
    and engine. I don't want to blame the gasket but the 2nd time around (will
    try next weekend)I'm wondering if I should try a Honda gasket. Any
    difference? Opinions? Any tips on keeping the curved part of the gasket in
    place when pushing it up?
    Thanks

    The manual calls for liquid gasket at the four corners. I
    did this last year on my 91 Civic and didn't have any
    problems with the gasket coming out of place.

    For gaskets, I now only use OEM. I don't trust the fit of
    non-OEM gaskets.

    www.slhonda.com has good prices and service.

    Felpro gaskets are pretty good. I've used them without problems. Many
    of Felpro's gaskets actually come from Japan so you may be getting OEM
    at a fraction of the dealer price.

    But some gaskets I'd buy from the dealer, because Felpros actually can
    cost more.
