Black sealant 90485251 equivalent
« on: 02 October 2022, 13:04:20 »
What is the recommended equivalent gloop to use for cam cover gaskets as it seems the 90485251 isn't available anywhere I've looked. Noticed in the guide it's grey sealant being used.

You want one of the permanently flexible sealants intended for oil applications - like Loctite 5910 or an equivalent.


The 'correct' GM sealant is readily available from numerous sources, including Ebay, if you google that part number. And is probably cheaper unless you're going to need a whole cartridge :y

Sorry, but if you actually bothered looking, you would find that it is, in fact, readily available.

Well done :y
That's not the GM stuff, is it? An equivalent maybe?
The GM stuff made by elring. For GM.

Point being that a ten year old partnumber is likely to be changed. The old numbers become obselete and the new Peugeot dealers cba to look up the newer numbers.

It's irritating that people say that xyz isn't available but don't want to spend a bit of time actually calling people who might a) know what the new number is, and b) stock it.

Halfords also sell a suitable loctite sealant, which means Screwfix probably also sell it. Unfortunately it seems to be easier to gripe about it than put some effort in.

Well, I've looked at grifter's post and I can't find any griping. Maybe it's just me.
If I was good at finding these things online, I would just find it and post it, saves a whole page on the forum. That nice Mr Enceladus seems to do that kind of thing, and doesn't shout at anyone  ;D

Thing is, you don't get any thanks for finding stuff out using the same facilities that the person posting has available to them had they been of a mind to. Doesn't matter if it is a crank sensor, or sealant or cambelt kit or oil cooler.

I did look but didn't see the original GM one, so wasn't sure if all those listed are compatible or one better than the other etc. I do have a lot of knowledge sourcing parts for my old fleet quite extensively over the years, I wasn't sure what the compatible gloop was, especially when I seen grey goop being used in the guide, yet most if not all say use black goop and nothing else.

If you Elite an MV6, does that make it an MVee-leet?

The Elring stuff is also listed as "Reference number OEM:90485251" on AutoDoc

Thanks, just what I'm looking for. Out of stock but will dig about elsewhere.
