Re: [diesel_mercedes] Gasket sealer

 

Gasket goop deserves a chapter all it's own.  Which, if any, to use depends on the gasket and the joint. What I mostly use on my Merc is some stuff called Gasgacinch, a very thin rubber cement.  Serves no sealing purpose, glues gasket to a surface so it doesn't move when parts are assembled. Trivial to remove.  For prospective leaky threads, clean 'em out and use blue loctite.  NEVER use red loctite for anything. Ask you mechanic if he has any Permatex Aviation Form-a-Gasket.  If he produces a tube, get in you car and leave.  Find another mechanic. Never go back... bk --- On Tue, 12/27/11, patricia_dougherty <9729219527@mms.att.net> wrote: From: patricia_dougherty <9729219527@mms.att.net> Subject: [diesel_mercedes] Gasket sealer To: diesel_mercedes@yahoogroups.com Date: Tuesday, December 27, 2011, 3:51 PM   Is there any particular gasket sealer we should use for diesel?

Arrrgh! Gotta go back and check my settings again.) Trish Dougherty PurrFect Harmony Farm Ennis, TX
