I'm installing a new water pump and the housing came off with it. I don't currently have a real gasket for the housing, just the water pump. Is it safe/advisable to use RTV instead of a gasket? If so, what kind of RTV? I have some copper lying around if that works. This is what would be RTV'd instead of a gasket. __________________ 1986 Sport: 132k miles, 5A (Sapphire Blue Metallic), Tokico Blues, Racing Beat Springs, Custom LED tailights (only S4 LED tails in the world), SSR Mark II, Racing Beat exhaust, S5 black interior, Rotary Resurrection rebuild at 120k miles Community Service Manual RotorWiki "Imagination costs nothing; we could build square locomotives or fly to Mars" - Felix Wankel Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, but today is a gift.
