Silicone sealer, or gasket maker, even if you have a cork gasket use sealer. I recommend Ultra Black or Ultra Blue. Priscilla =^.^=
A new head gasket.
NO. You MUST replace the intake gasket.
NO you do not. That is what the o-ring is for. If you use sealer it will wind up in the oil and that is Not good.
No, nothing will fix a blown head gasket except replacing it. Sealer are only used in an emergency situation as a temporary fix.
On some of the older models (4-5 years or more) most mechanics use a light coat of gasket sealer to hold the gasket in place until the gasket housing is torqued down. Some thermostat gaskets come with a gasket already coated with a peel off to help hold it in place. On most newer models they use a rubber "O" ring or seal and no gasket is required.
As far as I know, it should have a gasket. Make sure to use gasket sealer as well when replacing it.
TAke off valve cover then strip off old gasket.. clean entire serface with alcohol or gas or gasket remover. Then buy a new gasket from a local auto shop, along with some gasket sealer... Put on new gasket as old one was taken off. Use gasket sealer on top and bottom or gasket. Just a thin coat. THen place the cover back on with gasket in place and tighten bolts. Let sit for about 24 hours before starting to let the gasket sealer dry.. Should work better then ever.

no a thin film of grease can be applied but do whatever the gasket mfg. says. Depends on the gasket and engine manufacturer. Follow what it says in the service information.
