It went better than expected, instead of firing the waste of flesh the boss has decided to try and work him to death. It is so funny to watch

what do i need to do to get the thing sealed properly? another new gasket?
Like Rick said
Make sure you've removed all of the old gasket. It has a tendency to stick to the pipe. Had the same problem with my tacoma and on the second try i found piece of the old gasket still stuck to the front pipe where I couldn't see it.

i am thinking that this is the problem. the old gasket was really hard to get off and crumbling. a total pain in the arse.

does anyone know what the gasket is made of? it looked like a weave of steel wire and coated with another shiny metal.

Steal weave and lead, I believe there might be another soft metal in there as well

well, i was right under the thing and using a screwdriver to peel the stuff off and dust everywhere. if i'f been thinking, i'd have put some kind of mask on. i'd call that a major exposure.
