for you folks who have done the AutoZone pump, I have a question for you. I haven't had to do a w/p in about16 years. Do you still goo up the gasket with Permatex, if so any particular type? I don't remember seeing that mentioned in the Haynes manual.
Thanks,

I would have to say NO! DO NOT "goo up the gasket"! When I changed my H2O pump I did use just a very thin layer on the sealing surface of the pump, but just enough to hold the gasket in place. I have had no sealing problems.
