I am about to seal up my oil pan and I was looking in the toyota factory manual. There are these diagrams with A, B And C with pictures that I cannot figure out what they are hinting at. Does anyone know the meaning of these diagrams? Also, How thick of a bead did you run of FIPG on your oil pan.

1/8" should be plenty.... remember, however much splooges on the outside is splooging INSIDE too :)

A) FIPG installed in center channel
B) FIPG installed in channel where channel is close to inside of pan
C) FIPG installed, not in channel, but on inside-pan side of bolt hole

i've never paid attention to those guidelines... 1/8" bead, stay inside bolt holes, you should be fine.

Be sure to use real FIPG :)
