1st: I have a 95 240SX w/ an S13 SR20DET. The main oil seal is leaking. I've already purchased the part from Kragen Auto. The seal is greased up and ready to install but it also came with a tube of Liquid Gasket. All of the threads I've read don't include anything about using Liquid Gasket or not. Please let me know if I should us it and how (use liquid gasket on the seal-side or pulley-side or both).2nd: My turn signals aren't working. They haven't worked for the longest time. The turn signal level which controls the headlights, wipers and signals; headlights work but wipers and signals don't work. Note: The hazard lights work just fine. So, should I check the flashers or what do you guys suggest. Thanks for your help. JC

I'm assuming you are talking about the front main seal... I never used any liquid gasket putting mine in.

Turn signals- I don't really know man, but it sounds like you've got a bad switch. How to go about fixing it... you're on your own haha. Try looking in the FSM?
