Many years of dirtbiking made me a believer in Loctite. While proper torque works too, after one or two times on and off, fasteners stretch and don't hold as well. Cheap insurance...

 

Red where its called for blue on everything else and tourque per spec

 

Well I thought I did until I was out riding today and stop for a bit and noticed my exhaust tip gone!!! Luckily I found it not to far from my house but unfortunately it is now shaped like an egg but I think I can fix it with a little heat. When done red will be going on I know it is on the other one I just must have been to excited when installing them that I forgot one.

Live and Learn.

 

I haven't put any on my ice cream, yet. Got to admit I never thought of it until I read this post....... hmmmmmm, maybe tonight.

The question should be red, green, or blue?

Depends on the situation but I use it when calls for it!

 

don't forget you need to use primer when applying loctite to stainless or other non ferous matals

 

I use blue loctite on whatever the service manual calls for.
