I hope neither party is on the list.   Hate to have
them take offense to my question.   In a pinch I will
reuse anything, but exhaust gaskets have exhaust nuts
and exhaust leaks.   And the vanagon has a ton of
them.
And a leak can mean a rich mixture and a rich mixture
can mean a spoiled catalysis and all because I didn't
get around to replacing that old gasket I reused.
And then I stripped that stud because he had and old
nut that I used more than once.   Getting old is a
drag for even an exhaust gasket I guess.
   And president rr I miss you even if I never voted
for you.   You were always better than on old exhaust
gasket.  I guess I am a bit airy today, gary
