Re: Think I used the wrong kind of RTV

The worst that will happen is it will start to leak. If it leaks, pull it off and re-do it with black, grey, or red RTV. Depending on how much you used, the silicates in the coolant will precipitate out on the silicone molecules and make a jello-like growth around the seal inside. At worst it will shorten the life of the pump slightly or clog the heater core. Both easily fixable things.
