Replacing transom seal
I am replacing the transom seal, the gasket between the drive and the transom, and was wondering if any kind of sealant is needed or do you just put the new gasket in and bolt it down? It is a number three speedmaster, the old seal looks kinda like cork.
Thanks

Ok getting ready to put the housing back on with the new seal, is any kind of sealant needed between the housing and seal and between the seal and transom to make sure it does not leak? Form the looks of the drive housing and the gasket mine was leaking around the bottom. How do you make sure it does not happen again?
