Does anyone know if there is leak sealer in this R134a?

Possibly a small amount according to the MSDS at http://idqusa.com/datasheets/msds/347_MSDS.pdfSays: 0-1% Leak Sealer

Mine leaked. You might need new gasket rings. Mine always broke and didn't seal completely.

mine had no seal with it and i haven't had any leaks yet. used it all summer with a lot of rain , maybe it's your rubber seal that it sits on that needs replaced.

The one I ordered is a cleaner and sealer in one. Not sure if your talking about the same thing.

Mine doesn't leak, maybe put some pipe tape around the threads see if that works

No, I believe they are third party. But they work perfectly. I replaced mine over six months ago and no leaks no problems.

I do not remember white seals, however I have had no leaks sense replacing the seals over a year ago. It was rather easy to install.

I have not opened the last one of these that I ordered, but the one I did use came with a split ring and a silicone O-ring and a washer and I assembled them as instructed but have yet to test that part of the system ( I am replacing the existing galvanized plumbing system).I will be upset if the latest order does not contain the three piece sealing components-BTW they may be there just disassemble the unit n see if they are inside.

Nope. I've owned three, zero leaks. Could it be overfilled? If you can verify the leak (maybe from a line?) I'd send it back. Good luck!

Have you tried usimg that white sealant tape on the connections you have to screw on? That is something that is necessary on things like this yet are not usually included. When I bought my pump it used to leak air as well until I used that tape.

The rubber ring is a seal against leaks. You will probably ruin your machine if you continue to use it without the proper seal.

Yes, Mine came with a soft rubbery sealant that seemed to seal just fine. I've had no problems with any leaks.

A new water pump o-ring seal was included in the kit I received. I also used some gasket sealant (Ultra-Blue) when I installed it.

Yes there is. But to be perfectly honest I'd buy a much more robust model than this one. The seal failed one day and it was pretty spectacular.

Actually, there is. There is a metal plate at the bottom of the shaft (just above the blades themselves). On the back side of the plate is plastic. There is also (what appears to be) a silicone gasket that the plastic from the metal plate sits in, and plastic behind the gasket. The silicone gasket MAY provide a seal from the plastic. However, when the shaft comes loose and falls out (as it has done in mine), then there obviously is no seal from the plastic.

There may be, but this is the only one that worked without leaking. I am glad I paid the difference and got this one.

Same response as Clarence. The is no seal gasket as such. When you install this unit in the hole in the bottom of the tank and use the wrench that comes with it the rubber expands and makes the seal.
