Should I use jointing compound?
Bryanj:
Ordinary silicone is OK but ONLY if used VERY THINLY so that there is NO squidge into the crankcases
Clem2112:
Used Three Bond ... They say it's the same as the factory stuff.
No leaks to date.
Other threads on this ie which faces to use it on etc.
I used a small syringe to apply it sparingly(no needle of course)
UK Pete:
Three bond for crankcase halfs, a light coating of hylomar on all the others, that is my choice, stay away from silicon as it sqeezes out on the inside and snaps off clogging up the oil pump gauze

Clem2112:
I can remember when orange silicone rtv was all the rage ...mostly on side cases....nobody would spend cash on new gaskets.
It was ahead of its time that high viz look ! ::)
