You do not need to add a sealant to the gasket. Just make sure you torque the bolts to factory specs.

If you did not get the water in your oil from replacing the gasket then you may have a coolant passage leaking into an oil passage. Another answer may be a gasket that is not exactly like the old one. Sometimes the parts store issue a wrong part or may be from a bad aftermarket gasket.

How do you replace the water pump on a 1995 Pontiac Grand Am?
I'VE BEEN TOLD A SHORTCUT TO REPLACING THE WATER PUMP IS TO REMOVE THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD AND THE WATER PUMP WILL COME OUT EASILY. THEN OF COURSE, YOU HAVE THE EXPENSE OF REPLACING THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD GASKET AND EXHAUST O-RING GASKET. BUT A LOT CHEAPER THAN REMOVING THE WHOLE FRONT OF THE MOTOR. Try a chiltons manual or www.alldata.com If this is a quad four motor, you may not want to try this at home.
