I have a feeling I'd have a LOT of topics to post there.

I second that idea for a forum

I do love the stuff. I couldn't imagine anything stickier. It really works well for sticking rubber seals and things. I just did my water pump and that seal didn't move at all. :-)

I luckily still have a can of OMC gasket sealer. But when that runs out I will use Permatex Aviation Form A Gasket which appears to behave basically the same. Easy on, easy off, and easy to clean up.

I'm coming here to admit my mistake. I hope nobody else makes this one. :-)

I purchased a quart of Adhesive M. I see it used in the manual for just about any bolt or rubber gasket that needs to stay put and can't leak gas, oil or water. I thought it might be good to stop possible water intrusion in my outdrive. I used it on my gimbal housing to outdrive gasket last night. I needed to remove the outdrive today and spent over two hours cleaning both surfaces. :-( I caution against using this on paper gaskets or on parts you'll need to revisit again.

Oooops.
