Flatsman,<br /> Permatex anti-seeze compound works great for marine applications.It is available in small tubes to larger containers.It is a silver paste available at auto parts stores.Works great on all threads,bolts,spark plugs etc.Also works great on steering cables for lubrication.Use it sparingly,do not over apply....

mercury special lube 101 is very very good. gasket sealing compound is fair. i don't recommend anti-seize, it does have very fine metal particals in it tha when in contact with stainless bolts and aluminum housing and saltwater can cause electrolois over time. none of the outboard manufactures recommend it either.
