guys,
there are three points on every housing that needs rtv.the two leg positions and the oil pasage at the uper side where the dowels are.
last week i assembled my motor and now i noticed that one of the four locations of the dowels that needs rtv might not have.
i noticed that the other three points have rtv squized out and the fourth is clear.how serius is if i forgot to put any?
is the oring and the hylomar
enouth?
please i need your advice. .
should i dissasemble the engine?
thanks

 

there is no RTV required around the dowel pins, the oring and hylomar is fine.

 

HI ,
thanks for the reply.i was woried because the FSM indicates to put sealant arout the dowel pin orings.did you asembled a motor with orings only and you are ok?
thanks!

 

We only ever use RTV on the housing legs. Hylomar at the dowel pin landings to hold the o-rings in place.

The FSM does not say to use RTV on the o-ring, it says to use petroleum jelly

 

thanks Guys all of you,
my mistake. i read carefuly the FSM and indeed there is no rtv required.
