Technical Is there a sump gasket?

lee gsi · Aug 24, 2009

Is there a sump gasket on the 1.9 TDi Punto? Haynes says there is but 2 parts places say there isnt. Who's right?

Hi, I think not as Shop4Parts don't do em,only loctite liquid gasket.

as inki says, the gasket is the sealant compound you use between the sump and the engine

There is, Fiat will sell the 'proper' sump sealer you want. It's black stuff.

So there is no rubber gasket but the sealer acts as the gasket? Is there any non fiat stuff I can use as Fiat are 40 miles away.
