It seems none of you guys use any sealant around the gasket?? I've replaced four T-stats, two on 850s, and two on 960s (same basic engine), and always used a thin layer of Permatex Blue RTV. I've also always used a thin coat of sealant when replacing thermostats on other cars. How come I don't see this being recommended on the Volvo forum?
