Now there is a lot of talk about using c*ck up liquid gasket seal when doing this and other jobs around the roadsters like the CAS and rocker seals also, i hate the stuff,It is a lazy way to seal up and in most cases hide an issue without doing the job correct, it is more the aftermath further down the line that grinds me ,because when lazy c*ck up person and there magic crap fails ,,,which it will, the honest spannner guys get left with sorting all the mess out which then takes twice/3 times as long as it should of been done in the first place to do the job correct....
I am sure i am not the only one that as spent hours either picking it all from the top of the engine, in it all over the rocker cover or CAS,water pump and inlet,and thermostat ....in some of the best case it as squashed and seeped into the engine and coolant system helping the block the oil pump and thermostats and radiator when it turns into hard bits of rubber, it is nasty stuff don't use it, i get the "quick fix" but when spending the time to take apart and rebuild them,,,, .
Its so so simple to do, i have personally been throwing spanners at these Roadsters form the start and never had a aftermarket paper gasket seal fail on any of the Roadsters i have done for myself and many many other happy owners throwing them about on the roads with full confidence they will not blow....
Lithium grease....
Smear onto the casting where the seals will be sitting.....
Once the paper gaskets are in place , smear some more lithium grease on the dry side of the gasket again...
And then offer the pump to the block and torque down the 4 x 12 mm head bolts of the pump to the block and the 2 x 12 mm head bolts to the water pump inlet...
And it is just that simple to do and enjoy the Roadster...
