your selling it. Get it hot, mix up some furnace cement, or buy some pre mixed, and but it on the leak. Let it dry before starting.
For a blown gasket?
It will stop the leak.
IMHO, Do it RIGHT or Don't do it at all. Passing along a known problem to an unsuspecting buyer is wrong on many levels. Also, given the age of the coach, whoever buys it will most likely be someone who can least afford to fix it. If you do band aid it, morally you should let that be known to the buyer.
As to changing out the gasket, yes, it's that easy. Spraying PB Blaster or penetrating oil every day for a week is solid advice. I'd spray, wait a day and try to remove them. If they don't budge, repeat. Cold or hot won't matter except for you comfort level. I'd work on it cold. You might get lucky and the bolts will spin right out. Go slow and don't try to force them or they may break. After spraying a quick rap with a hammer may help in working the penetrating oil into the bolt threads....good luck....Dennis
