Does anyone know if coppercoat can be used instead of a gasket when installing the oil pump?
Thanks D |

I'm not sure what "coppercoat" is, but if it's similar to high temp goop, you should be OK. The oil pump fits pretty snugly into the crankcase and there's not much room for oil to leak out. As long as you give it proper time (I think 8 hours is reccommended, but I always give it 24) to set up and seal, it shouldn't be a problem.

It's high temp goop with copper flakes in it to fill small imperfections. really messy. I'll run with it. Thanks |
