Bingster Posted July 26, 2023 Report Share Posted July 26, 2023 What would be the best sealer for the fuel pump to block gasket? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution Ivan_B Posted July 26, 2023 Solution Report Share Posted July 26, 2023 (edited) Just go to the applicable auto store section and get anything that says "fuel resistant" on it I personally prefer the non-hardening ones, I think Permatex gray or black, or something like that, came in a tiny tube at Autozone. later: probably this one.

Ivan_B Posted July 26, 2023 Report Share Posted July 26, 2023 (edited) Any brand is fine, as long as it is specifically rated for applications involving contact with gasoline If I remember correctly, there are also some glue/sealants available for gas tank repairs, etc. But I would not use these, because you will eventually need to take the pump off the car, some time in the future. Also, an OEM-style gasket by itself should also do the job just fine, assuming that the contact surfaces on the pump and the block are still true. I do prefer to dress-up all of my gaskets, however, so I understand the concern for extra protection ? Just don't forget to carefully wipe the gasket and both mating surfaces with alcohol beforehand, otherwise, the sealant will be useless.
