Great. I just ordered 4 of them.
Has anyone else tried these gaskets as well? I know some of us ordered
them, but has anyone actually tried to use them?
If they are indeed too soft, maybe we should apply less torque? The
recommended torque is obviously determined for best seal with the
original gaskets. I think I will just apply enough torque to get it
correct by feel and look (and still use a torque spanner to make sure I
at least don't overtorque.)
> 40C takeoff from Croatia last week
Hey, we have been to Croatia recently as well. Which field(s) did you
do? We've done Brac, Trogir (Split) as a diversion because Brac was
closed, Unije, Pula (for customs only). We certainly want to go back to
Brac and Unije. We found Landshut in Germany a very friendly EU-entry
airport... with an excellent Croatian restaurant. :-)
