I bought a Fel Pro head gasket kit, part number: HS 26167 PT-1.
It is for my 1998 Legacy GT. It has the 2.5.
It does not come with instructions regarding sealant. Should I put any on?
Thanks

I'm not sure of that brand. So I'm assuming it's aftermarket.
When i did mine, I had OEM gaskets and did not use any sealant.

I was told you only need the sealant on like a 90 degree corner. That's what I didnt on my Neon and Accord and never leaked afterwards.
