If you're doing a complete one, oil the flanges, lay on your generous
bead and take up the screws only until you have a thickish gasket
like the original.  Let it cure like that and then take up a bit more
on the screws.  With luck the oil will keep the RTV from bonding to
either side and you'll have a reusable gasket.

I used the even fancier copper-colored sensor-safe stuff when I did
this but I'm sure the red will be fine.

Yrs,
