While I understand the "not from the factory" mentality blue loctite is cheap insurance on an older car with older fasteners, and the host of other maladies that come with older vehicles. Not that I think Loctite is a magic bullet rather that if you find correctly torquing fasteners, using the correct lockwashers, etc. is not working then why not use the Loctite? Certainly better than loosing/breaking engine parts. RT
