Hi Guys. I'm replacing the impeller on my 1969 Johnson 25 HP. This is a very basic unit, but I'm unsure about a couple of details.
1) There's no gasket, but are you supposed to put some sort of gasket sealer/maker between lower unit and upper unit when reassembling? (There's 2 capscrews on each side and a main, longer capscrew going down from the top)
2) Are you supposed to put any sealer on the metal (chrome colored) plate under the water pump housing? (the plate the impeller sits on)- Also, does the pump housing get sealed at all too? There are no gaskets for these components, but I didn't know if you are supposed to seal them.
Thanks!!
