ok.. here's the scoop..
i used the 1/2" gasket.....White..
when I went to lock the door, it would not latch down..no matter how hard I pushed the door in. the handle locking mechanism on the inside would NOT go all the way in between the cutout [ears] for lack of a better word.. so, i just grabbed a pair of channel locks and bent both of the cutout ears a bit towards me or towards the outside.. that fixed it.. she locks good and tight.. and I mean TIGHT!!
NOTE: Just remembered something.. duh..
I always thought my stove door could have closed tighter last year so i looked at that cutout and noticed both ears bent a bit towards the front.. i'll bet when the original gasket was put on, the door would not latch so they prob bent it outwards a bit like i did yesterday.. anyways, I bent the ears inward last year as my gasket was getting a bit flat and then my door closed tighter... seems I had to do the same deal after I put the new gasket on and bend a bit outward... hope this all makes sense..
