I actually took mine back apart just to see if the amount of sealant used was too much or too little. I used a very minute amount of thinned sealer. There was barely any sealant pushed out into the large openings. I could have used even less or perhaps none.

I also found that the cast iron parts clean up very well with naval jelly if there is rust present.

I did not polish my plunger as it was just a bit gummed with old gas. I wanted to leave clearances as tight as possible but still have free movement.
