water pump sealer?

What are the automotive equivalents for the gasket sealer and the M type adhesive?

Do you have a Johhny/Rude dealer/mechanic near you? I like the BRP Gasket Sealing Compound with the brush built in the lid.

I'm sure there is one around but I can't imagine there is a dime worth of difference between the automotive equivalent.

Anyone?

I ordered the type M from my local Johnny/ Rude dealer and I got a tube of 3M Scotch-Grip Rubber & Gasket Adhesive # 847. That stuff is sticky but it worked great.

Marpox sealer 1000 is the same as M.

Many Yamaha users are into Three Bond Liquid Gasket 1104 for metal to metal and metal to plastic.

Marprox and M are obsolete. 3M #847 is the stuff today. The nearest automotive you will find for the BRP Gasket sealer is Aviation Permatex, the one that comes in a can with a brush. But it is NOT the same, even if only for pleasantness of use. There is also Perfect Seal #4 if you can find it. (Mercury Dealers) That's about the same as BRP.

I recently used the avaition permatex, the brown stuff with the brush in the lid, is that OK? I used it on the pump housing/plate and on the gasket when I did the thermostat replacement on a J50BELCTA. I thought people on here told me that was good stuff?

Sure, it's OK.

You can get 3M Scotch-Grip Rubber & Gasket Adhesive #847 from your JohnnyRude dealer or order from ishopmarine.com, part # 776964
or
pay half the price and order from McMaster-Carr or get it locally from Grainger.

I've used this and Loctite Aviation stuff. They are NOT the same. I have not had good luck with the Loctite.
