Crank case sealant

[Patsy]

I just spilt my cases to remove the clutch pushrod because it mushroomed like crazy. What kind of sealant can I pick up at AutoZone when I put it back together tonight? Any tips on amount of sealant or where NOT to put it. I tried searching the forum, but couldn't find anything.........maybe I'll try liquid gasket.....

 

Thanks,

I used yamabond from my local atv store. Threebond is also good. Not sure if autozone would carry the right stuff.

Yea you need to use the correct sealant. Regular form a gasket, rtv, or ultra coper, black sealer wont work.

 

Yambond 4, honda bond, threebond, or permitex Moto Seal.

 

If your looking at a car parts place, Moto Seal is probably goign to be your best bet because it is made by permitex.

Threebond 1194. You can find it at most stealerships.

I use threebond 1211.

Hondabond, yamabond, suzukibond all set up too quickly.

 

Threebond 1211 is best.

What is the grey version of Three Bond for cases...I have a tube of 1211, but I seem to remember the last time I used a Banshee case gasket maker (sealer) was maybe Three Bond 1209 maybe or 1204, it was grey I believe...1211 is white...after almost 17 years since I've split the cases, I'm splitting them again to build a 421...any suggestions?
