Subject:Re: Head sealants??

I guess I was not clear with my last post...not the first time...and
likely not the last...sorry folks

I have the Right Stuff for the heads and for under the cap nuts.  I have
the Permatex Anaerobic Gasket maker #51813 for the push rod tub seals
and the lower black O-ring on the cylinder.  My question is: the
instruction on the 51813 says to use a special primer (which I bought)
and then apply the 51813.  The primer is in an aerosol and it would be
very challenging to use it without getting it everywhere, which would
not be good.  What do people do?  Can the 51813 be used with out the
primer?  

Thanks

Pascal
