    Just rebuilding the components in the "V" after a coolant and oil leak. Replacing all gaskets, coolant valve and flange.

    I have a question for the rubber gaskets during the rebuild for the following below - should I leave them dry, lubricate with coolant or oil as appropriate or use something different - red rubber grease or silicon grease etc. My manual doesn't say anything which indicate leave dry but I have always used a wipe of oil on oil gaskets and coolant or red grease on coolant gaskets.

    Oil cooler plate to engine block gasket (oil and coolant gaskets)
    Oil cooler gasket (Oil and coolant gaskets)
    Coolant valve gasket to block
    Coolant flange to block
    O ring from flange to Oil cooler
    Intake Manifold to head gaskets

    Just want to get this right as don't want to revisit this!

    Thanks for any advice assistance.
