Alloy Pump Cover Gasket

[Etches]

Basically i'm after something which is obsolete at the dealers for this



Debating whether to just use some heavy duty sealant I have (final systems) which worked fine on the rocker cover.

What have people chose to use ?

Cheers

i see a paper gasket on mine, but as they are obsolete now can you get some basket paper and just cut one the same shape? maybe take a rubbing on a piece of paper then cut it out and use it as a template for your gasket use a wad punch for holes or if you don't have one very small sharp scissors.

If not as you say Im sure a servant would work.

On a side note have you checked these gasket arnt available direct from other manufacturers such as erling can't remember if you get on of these in a "bottom end gasket set"

That link isnt for our polos dude, it says incompatible

ALthough it looks like it does fit

I've bought gasket paper and sealant so I'm guna have a go at cutting it out...
