Thanks for the tip, I'm going out right now to buy a new O-ring and some silicone grease.. I can't believe this poor design.

Hello Peter, I am replacing my water pump with my timing belt and I'm looking to this as a reference. Great tip on the silicone for the o-ring I'll keep that in mind. 👍 I'm very impressed with all of your mechanical expertise but have personally always been told to avoid using scrapers on gasket surfaces. You recommended it in this video. Are those specific kinds of scrapers/blades? I stopped before continuing The job because I wasn't happy with the cleanliness of my gasket mating surface, and plastic scrapers have done all they can. I'll try with a scrub pad next, and only if you strongly suggest it, I will graduate to using the metal scrapers if necessary.

Tip to keep bolts organized: punch holes in a cardboard box with a screwdriver and stick the bolts in the order/shape they came out (and label, or even “draw” the shape of what they came out of). It makes things way easier to visualize when going back in, and prevents them from disappearing or getting out of order.

I never torque water pump studs. The way I do them is I get my gasket, put a little skim coat of rtv silicone gasket maker on either side, place the gasket on the pump, align the pump to the block, start a couple bolts with FINGERS ONLY, so as to hold the gasket in place, and then get the rest of the bolts/studs started by fingers only, I then finger tighten until the rtv begins to squeeze out. I then go back with a 1/4 in drive, or 3/8 in drive ratchet, and give them a good snug. That is more than enough, and I have never had any problems

I am not a mechanic but I have learned while working in Information Technology the importance of effective documentation. An example is when you refer to the instruction about using hand soap it should clearly indicate what is acceptable. Is Dawn dish detergent acceptable? Or are we referring to the cream-type hand soap? I try to ask effective questions to clear up the awkward situation. It is awesome that other folks advise otherwise and suggested you use silicone, this illustrate the beauty of collaboration and the willingness to help others so that they do not have to struggle needlessly. Have a wonderful day!
