Liquid gasket on top of everything else?

(1/4) > >>

alexdecker:
Hey all

How to we feel about liquid casket like this? Shouldn't the gaskets in themselves be enough? Do you guys recommend this?

Sesman:
That’s for the crank case Half’s I think. I wouldn’t recommend it’s use with the correct gaskets.

K2-K6:
Not for these engines, specific use (in product description) refers to water, ethylene glycol resistance used in water cooled engines.

Hondabond is used for crankcase half sealing specifically on this era motorcycle.

Sesman:
Yup. But what is that stuff used for? I used hondabond by the way….sparingly.

McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
Mercdes Benz use a liquid only gasket on their sumps for the OM 642 diesel engines also fitted in a range of other vehicles such as Jeep, Chrysler etc.
Personally on an air cooled engine I would stick with Hondabond or similar. (eg Yamibond).
