Head gasket sealant need a quick response

(1/5) > >>

DeadRinger:
Been awhile since I did a topend what are you guys sealing the head with nowadays? Dry? Rtv high temp? I used to use a yellow sealant but can't remember what it was. -DR

royceymon@hotmail.co.uk:
are you not using the standard head gasket? on most other stuff i use blue hylomar ,i do believe rolls royce used to or still do use it!

Foxx4Beaver:
A "thin" coating of Yamabond 4 on OEM gasket....just cheap insurance.I do this everytime,EVEN after re-surfacing.Nothing worse than gettin your bike back together,just to have to tear it right back down cause of a head gasket!!

DeadRinger:
Is yamabond 4 yellow? thanks for the tips guys I am using the oem gasket.

Foxx4Beaver:
no it's grey in color...ThreeBond is the same thing,and is usually more readily availible at dealerships.
