I've put a few miles on my new engine and want to put the Tuna Can back on before the AX seasons starts.

I've lost my instructions and can't remember if it takes a gasket or not.

And am I correct in remembering that the big bolt takes a crush washer?

Guess I need to start a diary. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)

Thanks John.

I do remember the nervous part... 9 foot# torque. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/ohmy.gif)

Although I have a heavy duty oil pump which shows 40 to 80 lbs oil pressure, on some sweeping off ramps I noticed the oil light would come on. That light does not come on with the tuna can.

On another note though, I wonder what that light actually means as to what activates it. You would think that it would be an early warning device of some sort. I mean if you're actually suffering from oil starvation at that point, it's value is somewhat diminished.

Anyone know the answer to this question?
