As some of you may know, I've been doing alot of stuff to the car. Its been in the mechanic for a few weeks now. The mechanic told me that if I wanted to change the oil pump, now would be the best time because the engine was still off the car. So, I purchased the oil pump. The oil pump came without a gasket. Now, I'm going crazy looking for an oil pump gasket. I've been to tons of shops, can't find any. The only shops that say they can find the gasket will charge over 20 dollars, and they'd have to order it. In one shop, they told me I could use a sheet of asbestos or something like that to build my own gasket. Another option I recieved was to simply use cilicone. Anyone have any suggestions?
