The shop manual recommends "sealant" be applied to the grommet when replacing the stator. Is this usually done or skipped?
If it's done, then is RTV used (high temp silicone gasket goo)?
Sealant for stator replacement?

Rtv silicone is my go to and yes, i always use it.
I have used RTV as well. On my last stator change the gasket got FUBARed and I had a leak, rather than order a new gasket and have to wait for it, I used some Honda Bond that I had on hand. Used it as a gasket and as a sealant on the grommet.
Great. Thanks guys.
Yeah, RTV or similar... I like the grey Permatex "The Right Stuff", which I have heard anecdotally is the same formula as Hondabond.
