HughJebolzak 37 Posted June 3, 2019 The shop manual recommends "sealant" be applied to the grommet when replacing the stator. Is this usually done or skipped? If it's done, then is RTV used (high temp silicone gasket goo)? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WackenSS 43 Posted June 3, 2019 Rtv silicone is my go to and yes, i always use it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Duc2V4 1057 Posted June 3, 2019 I have used RTV as well. On my last stator change the gasket got FUBARed and I had a leak, rather than order a new gasket and have to wait for it, I used some Honda Bond that I had on hand. Used it as a gasket and as a sealant on the grommet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Marvelicious 164 Posted June 3, 2019 Yeah, RTV or similar... I like the grey Permatex "The Right Stuff", which I have heard anecdotally is the same formula as Hondabond. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
