Head gasket sealant need a quick response
DeadRinger:
I also used to assemble dry but started using sealant for extra insurance. Finished putting it together with yamabond 4 because I had a few tubes of that laying around for my VW motors. Thanks guys. -DR

you're welcome D-R....you're right,it's cheap insurance that WORKS.There's a thread on here under "02 KX500 head gasket leak" if I remember correctly....and even Stewart suggests using grey sealer,even on a Cometic gasket and that will be a "done deal"...and I think I would take Stewarts advice LONG before I took anyone elses first.

got to agree not a single problem with my old 85 and 88 500, but i never took the head off ,saved the money on the head gasket ,never got coked up with carbon ,right mixture,right jetting .
