Water Pump Gasket Sealer
My back plate to pump gasket (SBF shorty pump) failed some time back and I found that the two thin head bolts that support the long span on the bottom back were loose out of the box, and the gasket had no type of sealer on it, either. Got new gaskets, put it all back together, and now 1100miles later I've got a drip again, looks like from the bottom sealing surface of the pump to the timing cover so the front drive is coming apart again
My question - What type of sealer do you use on water pumps these days? If you use blue RTV do you use the paper gasket, or do you just use RTV alone? I've got a plan, but wondered what others are using, just for grins.Last edited by rspears; 07-07-2011 at 10:02 AM.

Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.
