The purpose of this bulletin is to provide information concerning the release of a new oil cooler cover sealant. The new sealant is identical to the material used in production and is specifically designed for sealing engine coolant as well as engine oil applications.
Note: This is the only sealant that is to be used when sealing the oil cooler cover. No other released service sealants are specifically designed to seal engine coolant applications.
The new sealant, *ThreeBond® 1217F, comes packaged in a tube and requires a standard caulking gun to apply. If a standard caulking gun is not available, obtain one locally.
