Secrets from the Grave #44

[Bimmers Only <bmrfamly@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Gentlemen
   I'm having to fix too many leaks due to improper sanitizing of bolt 
holes in preperation for installation.
   When preparing items for installation, carefully clean all bolt 
holes of old gasket and sealant residue.  Using a correct size bolt 
as a file to clear the hole can reduce the hazard of having old debri 
carried forward by a bolt and causing problems with your new gasket 
etc.
