Can you you use this on valve cover gaskets?

Yes just be sure the area is very clean and degreased. I am using it for my intake gasket and also for steam engine gaskets.

Properly tightened with quality gasket should work. Check the mating surface of the valve for smoothness (where it tightens against the gasket). I have used 2 of these valves, and they are flawless. One of the suggestions was thoughtful but incorrect in application (please no offense to Cory. It is great that everyone tries to help). Teflon tape is only to be used on pipe or tapered threads and can only temporarily stop a leak in other applications (if you like, get back to me anytime for details).

If the leak is due to a bad gasket, this should work if carefully applied. I have used it on plastic and rubber with no problems. If the leak is due to a crack in the manifold, I can't be sure. But it's worth a shot since a tube of this stuff is cheaper and easier than buying and installing a new manifold.

I have never tried this, so I a not sure. I know the top coat seals it really well. Sorry I could not be of more help.

Yes, I have used it many times on thermostat housings and it holds up well. This is a great product on new gaskets or to freshen old gaskets that have come apart undamaged.

I use it in conjunction with a gasket. I spread it on both sides of the paper gasket or a synthetic cork gasket and torque down the bolts. I have also used it on two machined surfaces where no gasket is required and torque the bolts down. I would not use it in place of a gasket.

This is used with a gasket. Put a nice coating on the stat housing and the head.. This is good..will seal the tiny little nooks you might get a seepage. make sure both surfaces are clean and smooth..no old sealer or gasket left.Works very well, properly tighten down the housing..snug all bolts to make sure everything is seated..then tighten to proper specs.

If you are looking to seal the gasket then this product will help you do that. If you are looking to "glue" the two pieces together with this product, then this product will not help you. This product is a sealant not a type of glue.

Might work if you clean the entire area first with min spirits or lacquer thinner. Surface needs to be clean and dry, oil free for this stuff to adhere. It's like spraying a thin film of rubber over the leak. Might be easier to just replace the gasket.

Yes, provided that the line has threaded ends that match the size of the valve you are using. I use braided lines too.

I doubt it. This is made to seal small pinhole type leaks, which it works well for. Cracks in metal flex with pressure and temperature and the crack will very quickly reappear. Could be a safety issue as well. If the tank can rupture due to the crack the sealant will not stop it. A good certified welder may be able to fix it right, but cracks are very hard to fix at the best. Go by the welder's judgment who will probably suggest to get a new or good condition used tank.

Yes watch temp gasket on valve is only good to 400 degrees if I remember correct.

On a vinyl liner I would have to guess no, on a cement liner....for the cost of the product I'd say get it a shot. I was able to seal a leak on PVC pipe joint that was wet and under some pressure. Again, for the cost ...I'd try it on anything to take a chance...good luck.

I don't see why not. It screws off to add the liquid . There is a rubber gasket that easily comes out- or just stays with the chrome top. As long as the gasket stayed in the top - I don't see it as a problem.

I would NOT recommend using this product for what you are suggesting. Product is very thick, like Vaseline petroleum jelly. I use it around rubber O rings and gaskets with hot tub and swimming pool equipment. Hope this helps.

Yes, for something like water pump or thermostat gaskets, possibly a carburetor gasket. Wouldn't recommend it for high temperature applications.
