I have a Shadek pump adapted for Type 4 (which I know some people don't like). The first time I installed the pump cover I did not use a gasket, just case-sealant. For the second time around, should I use a gasket under the cover?

There are plenty of sources for gasket material in any thickness you may need in order to set the clearance to what you desire. They re not hard to make yourself, just a little extra work.

I looked around briefly this morning - didn’t find anything 0.002” thick. I know it’s out there but Google didn’t find it on a quick search. Got a link to source? @rudedude |
