Stator wire grommet

I sealed mine 5-6 years ago and hasn't leaked yet. I removed the cover and cleaned the snot out of the wires/grommet area using brake clean. I'd let it completely dry, then clean again. I did this about 6 times until there was no traces of oil on the wiring or grommet area. I used liquid gasket and let it seep into the cloth of the wires and pool on top of the grommet. Also filled in the cavity just below the grommet with silicone and sealed the grommet to the aluminum. Let it dry in the bench for a coupla days before reinstalling.
