Hey guys, what's the general consensus on using a sealant(permatex, RTV,
etc)
along with the gasket when installing a new water pump?  I prefer not to
use
any, but don't know how prone they are to leakage around the mating
surface.

Permatex, RTV: nevernevernever....EVER!!!  Hylomar only and a very thin
smear at that; on both sides of the gasket.  You'll love it.  No leaks
on any of my repairs.
