quad seal lube ?

[fishinrado]

Hi doing the water pump etc on 98 alpha one gen 11 sterndrive
I have the 2-4-c and the perfect seal for the gaskets etc but does anything go on the quad seal for lube/sealant ?
what about on the two spring seals in the drive shaft seal housing and the small one in the upper
shift shaft housing?
the upper shift shaft seal Came out with a heavy green looking p-text and can't find a positive answer.
Thanks

I usually glue it into place with bellows adhesive, just so it doesn't get knocked out of place during assembly.

Contact cement, rubber adhesive.

You could just put a dab of grease in the quad,it'll stay there.
