The Merc bellows adhesive is what I have always used.

You talkin' about that big square 'O' ring for a merc? I think the manual said perfect seal which is the same as the OMC's and permabond non hardening gasket sealer.


Oops! Wrong drive. I didn't read good. Yeah, rubber cement.

We always use Gask-a-cinch (the can with the girl on it, which is why my wife sez we use it). Actually anything that will hold them in place during installation will work.

This is what I like to use also, The brush at the end makes it kind of easy to use.:)
