Hi Buly,

I haven't tried to take it apart yet, but I also used the gray
sealant.  I also, per Tracy's recommendation, put a light coat of oil
on one of the surfaces before pressing on the other side with the
sealant.  That's supposed to release easier and not cause any leak
problems.  I haven't had a leak problem in 1.3 hours running time on
the engine.
