Hey everyone,
I applied some Three Bond sealant to my 1ZZ between the block and crankcase per the service manual direction. I felt that I followed the directions well, but I saw this inside the block, I've attached the image below.
I understand the amount of sealant seeping out is excessive, but can this do harm to the engine under operation? I understand that it can possibly clog the oil pickup tube. Should I remove this excess and attempt at resealing?
Thank you!
Compared to the grossly excessive amounts many use, that is quite minor. However, you're fortunate in being able to simply clean it off with a sharp screwdriver or knife if you're concerned, as it is a girdle and you have access - I would but many would leave it.
I would scrape what I can off and leave it, but definitely give it a good go at trying to remove what you can once it's complete cured.
Thanks for the advice!
