put them in the oven on the lowest setting and baste every 5 minutes and you'll be fine lol
i re-sealed mine with silicon sealant as well just to be on the safe side and they never leaked so was a job done :-)

MAKE SURE YOU USE tiger seal, its avaliable from all good motor factors. its the stuff they use at the factory. comes in a same size tube as silicone.
