do you use a sealant on the gaskets above and below the wear plate in the water pump on a alpha one drive ?
is the torque value of 69 - 90 in lbs correct
thanks

On my Alpha-1 Gen I, I never used any sealants. I used some grease on the orings. I also tightened the water pump cover nuts until they were snug, but never torqued them.

manual says to use sealant on gasket under base, but nothing about the ones on both sides of the wear plate.
guess i,ll leave them dry.
