I am not claiming to be an expert on this... but I may have some pictures from TCane doing my pump which will help....
Also, for 35 years I have used only Locktight RED... Stud and Bearing Mount... I can see people panicking as they read that... but if you check it out... on a Normal size nut and bolt...it only adds about 5 ft lbs of torque required to break it loose... and it doesn't let go the way you seem to be suggesting the blue did for you..... however, I am old enough to remember the time when this stuff first came out... and they had a cleaner and primer to put on it before the locktight.... so maybe you are not getting your threads chemically clean... that might account for your Blue not setting up.. or you are not giving it overnight to Set... ? Do not put Red Locktight on something like the Flywheel Nut on a VW engine.... a LOT of surface area on those threads... and 200 Ft Lbs installation torque... that takes a real Stud to get it off... or oxy-Acet torch.... LOL
Anyway I will try to find the pictures and post them...hope they are of the same type pump....
One of these is the alignment bolts being used ... the other an allen wrench and 90 degree circlip plyers tightening it up....
