Hi All, Does anyone have a recommendation for a gasket dressing or sealant to use with the paper flange gaskets that are on the waterboxer engines. I have coolant leaks at the flange junctions (not the hoses) on both my vans where the small 7mm rubber hose fits on the top front of the rightside head under the alternator. On the one engine the gasket is 2 years old and I used some stuff called permatex hylamar (spelling?) as a sealant, so I don't want to use that again. Thanks. Rick Koller |
