Top gasket of water pump leaking a bit - 1993 240 200

"Silicone sealant MUST be used on all the water pump gaskets on installation."

There is an OPINIONS forum for statements like THAT.

I've NEVER used silicone sealant on a water pump job. Maybe a few dabs of permatex to hold the paper gasket in place. Plus a thin wipe of silicone grease on the top gasket and return pipe o-ring.
