Sealant On New Water Jacket Seal?

[huggy76]

Evening all

I’ll soon be fitting my new water jacket seal and was wondering, do I put the sealant on both sides of the new seal or just on the cylinder head side?

Thanks in advance for any help given

Put a bead of sealant in the slot of the new water jacket. Push onto engine block. Add another 2-3mm to flat top surface of jacket and mount cylinder head.
You need to have everything ready and clean. Goo on head nuts. Tappets in. Pushrod and tubes to hand.

Good luck.

Thank you. I’ll keep my fingers crossed that it goes well.
