Getting ready to put the water pump and belt back on. Can't find Locktite 574 anywhere what have you used for replacement ?

Richard,
You need Loctite 574 for assembling the upper and lower part of the engine block, but for the water pump you (only) need a water pump gasket

This is where I got mine. No problems w/ seller, the stuff comes in a great squeeze bottle.

Why not just go to the Loctite website? You can search for local distributors using your zip code. Any one of them can get any Loctite product.

Thanks for the replys,

John..

You should put the pump on with a dry gasket only.

Richard has a legitimate question - one of the water pump bolts penetrates the water passage, and the FWSM says to install bolt 14a, M8x62 using Loctite 574.

Loctite 574 is a sealant, not a gasket treatment or a bolt locker.

Uh oh...another one-

FWSM = ???

Depending on on how things are going, at least one other word starting with the letter "F" can be substituted.

That's not for the water pump, <img border="0" alt="[nono]" title="" src="graemlins/nono.gif" /> but for the belt tensioner, and this bolt (14a) has a passage to the oil channel and need Loctite 574 - See Shop Manual page 15-10 and 15-11
PS: You made me nervous, and therefore I checked!
