It's completely beyond me why they don't seal... It *looks* and *feels* flat. When I took the bellhousing back off yesterday it didn't look like any oil was getting past the goo or the gasket paper. In fact in both cases that it's leaked it didn't even look like it was leaking at the bellhousing, looked more like it was leaking from the center split in the gearbox... But because it's happened exactly the same on both gearboxes (which were fine until I changed the bellhousing) I'm guessing it's the bellhousing...
BTW, how thick a gasket paper should I get? I've got a roll of gasket paper at the moment, not sure what it is - will check later.
What do you use to clean the surfaces?
Is more goo "better"? I've been laying down approx 3-5mm beads...
