Re: Fitting water jacket plates

I have found that engineers use & recommend RTV (room temp. vulcanizing) for nearly all engine sealing jobs. It's pretty much the same as the DIY silicone. It comes in black, grey & probably other colours and each colour is intended for different applications. Bound to be lots of info on thi...
