Hey guys i'm new here and have a quick question. I am putting the stock turbo back on my 07 5.9l and the old oil drain gasket is stuck on the turbo pretty good. It doesn't look to be damaged in any way. Are they reusable? Or should i try to gently scrap it off and get a new gasket?
Thanks
Joe
 
Thanks for the quick reply. It has the impression of the drain tube but it's not scarred up. I will try to match the drain tube back up to the impression and snug it down. Is there a torque spec for the bolts or just snug them up?
 
The gasket is under $5 at the dealership or cummins. I would change it to be safe. But I have reused them before. So it's really your call.
 
Thanks guys. I am going to try to reuse it since it is on there pretty good. Don't want to gouge the metal underneath trying to get the other one off.
BTW Gibson love the avatar.
