Hi folks, I need the advice of the experienced engine builders on this site with regard to replacing the water pump seal. I have removed and replaced the mechanical water pump seal on several Yamaha and Suzuki two stroke engines ( sled and ATV) without problems (so far). In the past, I have only relied on the preapplied blue band of sealant on the outside of the seal. I have not used any additional sealant on the outside of this seal. Do you folks use any additional sealant for ensuring a good, long-lasting seal? Thanks!

Jim
