Re: Gasket thickness? Posted by DougM [Email] (#211) [Profile/Gallery] (more from DougM) on Mon, 10 Jan 2005 19:46:00 In Reply to: Gasket thickness, Kemosobe, Mon, 10 Jan 2005 18:17:37 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
The last two times I replaced the pump, I didn't install a gasket, and had no cooling issues...other than the dribble, and err an oil leakin' pump(installed the pump wrong). I've been ignoring the procedure in the manual about measuring things and shimming stuff....I used anaerobic gasket maker(loctite 518) for the pump cover, and had no major issues.
I do have a gasket somewhere in the basement, but if I recall from the last time looking, it wasn't the right one...smaller diameter than the cover I was using. Baffled me a bit since I wasn't aware of different size covers, unless it was a gasket for the triumph engined pumps?
