[T3] Removing Oil Pump - In car

[Jim Adney]

Sorry, Keith, there is a thin paper gasket between the cover and the pump. 
The thicker gasket goes between the case and the pump. Both come in all 
the standard gasket sets.

The gasket compound you're probably trying to remember is  called 
something like Curil. I've never had any of it, but it's what's used between the 
case halves.
