Is there some kind of "Liquid Gasket" that i can use to make the power head gasket for a 7.5hp outboard? I.E. Silicon or something?

Re: liquid gasket

For the head gasket? No

For the gasket between the lower unit and power head? You are better off making a gasket with gasket material.

Re: liquid gasket

I would love to buy one but i cant find it. And as for the gasket material would the fiber rubber stuff work for that.. Its for a 1957 evinrude fleetwin 7.5hp. and it is the gasket between the motor and the lower unit.. the powerhead not just the head
