Hi wade....<br /><br />Just about any type gasket sealer (exception, RTV) will work on the O-ring. All ya' want to do is hold it in place so you can get the housing down on the shaft an impeller plate. Just a'tip from your ol' buddy jim here, put the impeller in the housing BEFORE you put the housing down on the drive shaft. It's ezzer that way.<br /><br />Let us know how yer doin'.

That's fine, but don't get carried away. Don't want any inside the pump housing.

3m yellow. The m only glues the o-ring to the housing.
