Well it rained today so the fishing trip got put on hold. My son and I decided to give the pan gaskets another try. After removal of the pan it was obvious that the front cork had slipped when we last put the pan in place. With new gaskets in hand and Big Blue raised up a bit my son slipped under and seated the cork end pieces and RTV was placed in the corners of the rail gaskets and down both sides. After letting the RTV tack up a bit he placed the pan in place with ease and tightened all the bolts to the proper torque settings. We added oil and fired her up. Much to our amazement no leaks. I'm so happy cause now I can drive her more than 2-3 miles without adding 2 qts of oil. Thanks guys for all the help. IT WORKED!
