I had a bad oil leak in my 2000 Dodge 2500 Cummins. I took the truck apart, and I went in, and pressure washed the old silicone gasket off to make sure it was completely off. After that, I installed a bead about 1/8th inch as the instructions said, and I installed it back on the truck. Then I snugged the bolts down to where they just started to push against the block, spread out the gasket, and left it for a day. The next day, I tightened it down the rest of the way, put it back together, and hadn't had any leaks since.
