i just changed my altenator and i couldnt get it out of that little space so i took the big hose off and the part its connectd to on the block where the water pump flows the anti-freeze to the radiator... when i put it back on i used a orange gasket maker and then after 1 hr i drove around for 10 mins and it leaked [im stupid i kno, 1 hr isnt long enuff] but is there a real gasket made for that cause wen i took mine off it had the silicon like stuff on it. i just put it back on just now with the strongest gasket maker [black one, also high temp] and lettin it sit over nite. will it work?

There is no gasket.

Nissan uses silicone on most parts. When you using silicone get shure it's O2 safe....

I'am using Cyclo instant gasket and no leaks
