Water pump gasket

[Silver Bullit]

I am about to replace the gasket as i feel my leak is coming out the side on the right...So if there any thing else i should replace while i am in there ...I replaced the clamps with some really nice clamps so i am open to whats direction is best thanks...

You say your replacing your "water pump gasket"? May I ask why? If your getting leaks out the square hole, this indicates loose clamps up in the Vee (ask me how I know) LOL.
The only reason you'd want to replace the pump gasket is if you've had it removed or replaced.
May I suggest (4) breeze clamps on the water hoses, and (1) lg. breeze clamp on the t-stat housing cover.

This is so true. When I rebuilt my Water Pump because it was leaking from the ROUND hole, I pinched the new Water Pump gasket. Boy did the water run out of the Square hole. I knew immediately what had happened. (This is for general info, If you have to replace the water pump cover gasket, the book say to use hondabond to seal the gasket to the cover. DO IT. It makes life much easier.)

Finally got around to ordering the gasket . the honda bond is proving to be very hard to get locally....Any help to get some thanks...

Shoot rulbe a PM. I'm guessing hondabond at honda or acura dealer would be the same thing.
There may be different types for different applications.
ex hondabond ht and hondabond type 4.

After talking with a honda mech, The mech seal and bearing along with oil seal . Stat and both orings. the shaft and the cover and the sprocket and chain is the only thing that you can reuse....I have a press so removing the bearing from the shaft is not a problem...I was also looking for some better hoses .....
