Crankcase Sealant?

Post by Olafskii »

What substitutes work instead of 'genuine' Suzuki sealing compound for crankcase halves? I can't find any genuine suzuki product locally but there are lots of good auto supply places.

Elsewhere on the forum fellows have recommended 'Threebond' and 'Threebond 1104'. I've found these compounds online but only in Australia and Indonesia. What is the equivalent in North America?

Threebond should be available in North America. Go on fleabay and type in a search for "Threebond 1184" and you will find a few results.
