Adhesive / mastic for sealing rubbers to plastic airbox
« on: October 23, 2020, 10:35:04 AM »
Just wondering if anyone knows of a decent product  for sealing the rubber inlets on plastic air boxes on 400/4, 500 four etc.
I was thinking maybe black silicone sealant but there may be a better fuel resisant flexible adhesive/mastic.

I use "Sticks like sh*t" .  It adheres better than silicon.
Where's that 10mm socket got to?
