• Eliminates oil seepage around the valve cover and spark plug wells.
• Reduces risk of fouled ignition coils or electrical connectors from oil exposure.
• Helps maintain correct oil levels and reduces unnecessary top-offs.
• Recommended whenever performing valve cover, spark plug, or ignition coil service.
