96 1.9 tdi water pump replacement. - scfc_151
My partners dad is planning on replacing the cam belt and water pump on a 1996 1.9td

He was just wondering when replacing the pump whether it needs a silcone gasket applying around the outside aswel as the gasket supplied with the pump or will that one be good enough?

cheers

The gasket supplied with the pump should be quite adequate providing you remove all traces of the old gasket from both faces. Ordinary silicone sealant makes a very good gasket if you apply a bead of it the night before onto a clean surface and let it set.
