Rocker Cover Gasket Sealant

Post by prelude_h22 » Tue Nov 05, 2013 10:52 pm

Hi guys

Just a quick question. Replacing the rocker cover gasket on the wifes Ford puma its a common issue for them to leak. I've bought a new gasket but want to seal it down with a sealant to ensure it doesn't leak.
I was wondering what gasket sealants people use?

or would any one on ebay do?

Thanks all

Threebond, it's basically the old Hondabond formula.

Vtecmec is right, but here's the thread from when I asked the same question a few weeks ago anyway;

Yeah, that should do nicely. :)
