The topic says it all...I just sick and tired of replacing hard o-rings
I'm not opposed to silicone, but what kind, where and how much? Pics would help... Thanks in advance |

I have vitons all around and my passenger side is just a pain in the ass.
i'll replace both seals on a tube, and it'll go from leaking at the head, to leaking at the case. friggen annoying. I'm about to put some gasket maker around the things right as i put them in. that would entail dropping the engine NO WANT! I had a similar thread to this and mr. Jake Raby was saying vitons are shit and get stuck as you put them in or bunch up. he says to use silicones. just my two cents |
