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?

Now that I'm in the shop I measured what I have here. The cover gaskets and most of the rear gaskets are the same thickness, just under .004". I found one rear gasket that was .008" and I have some thick ones which compress quite a bit but I don't use those.
The rear gaskets have a much narrower perimeter and don't have the tiny holes. |
