    55,000 gaskets in every tube. Good for the monthly oil change bros like myself.

    Change it every 3-5 years or so. You will be fine. In my life, I have probably replaced 3 on various cars. They don't leak often on reuse. What's more important is to make sure you don't over or under tighten the bolt.
