because on the Amazon website, where I ordered it - the description said quite clearly "Silicone Gasket Maker" but now it's arrived and I can't find the word "Silicone" anywhere on the package - just Ultra Black Advanced Formula Maximum Oil Resistant Gasket Maker. even on the back, nothing about silicone anywhere.
fyi, this is for the rear differential cover for my 2003 Ford Ranger, which as it turns out, does not use a pre-made gasket but rather a silicone one. I spotted a leak when my mechanic put the truck up on the rack to change the oil a couple of weeks ago. There was so much crud on the cover I decided just to buy a new cover, which I have now, and the Permatex I ordered online as it is so much cheaper.
But did I get the right stuff?
