Grease or Glue???

[johndoe]

Okay stupid question, but I don't know who to ask...

2004 Mercruiser 6.2L MPI with Bravo 3 drive... OM 686392 and OM192397

I am looking at the Rectangluar shaped o-rings that go into the stern drive unit. not the o-rings on the shaft...

One page of my manual says to use Gimbal Bearing grease on the o-ring seals for my o-rings and seals that go in the stern drive unit...

Another page says to use Bellwos adhesive..?

What gives... There is a HUGE difference between grease and adhesive...

Either one.
The grease will work, o-ring might slip.
Adhesive, I think, works better.
