Many thanks for your clear answer, I will order two new paper gaskets and will apply permatex in between, very good service of Marks Off Road that was not the case when I bought my pump in EU unfortunately

Thanks I do the same

Both the paper gasket on the block And the metal plate and the paper gasket in between was fitted. No silicon was used which created a cooling water leak. It is clear by comments in previous threads that permatex should be applied on the paper...

Thanks for the product details Mark :)

and remove the metal cover and apply the silicon on the paper gasket. Should that be sufficient to stop the leakage

My waterpump was also leaking I think because an additional paper gasket was fitted on top of the metal one Should I remove the paper gasket and apply rtv sillicon instead
