Recommended Types Of Crankcase Sealer

[kyle91987]

I've been doing a lot of reading and all three of my manuals seem to use different products when it comes to sealing the crankcases. I would like opinions on the things that you all have used with success.

I rebuild these engines and I use "HONDA BOND 4" or "YAMAHA BOND 4" as they are a thin sealler which doesn't compress into the engine and possibly cause problems.
Also it's the nearest sealant I've found to the Green Seller HONDA used to assemble these engines. ......lm

Thanks, LM. I called a few local Acura/Honda dealerships and they didn't seem to know what Hondabond 4 was, but they do have Hondabond HT in stock. Do you happen to know anything about the HT variety?

[LOUD MOUSE]

Never heard of that.
Ya may want to check with a MC shop.
That's where I get mine.
YAMABOND 4 is the same stuff. ............lm

Well, I have a bunch of Honda related PDF files and I found this in the 1964 accessory catalog.

Yep!
That was a long time back and has be issued with another produce name.
My local SUZUKI dealer looked up the HONDA BOND4 in a supplier book and got me a couple of tubes. ..........lm

If my memeory serves me correctly, Three Bond 1104 is the same stuff as well, and should be available at an auto parts store. I get the Hondabond from my Honda MC dealer. I actually have a tube of the origional Honda sealer, came in a lower gasket set from Honda.
