so i am going to loctite everything when my tt shows up.


i use red loctite on my motorbikes but i was wondering if it may be too strong for some of the smaller screws causing them to strip if i try to remove them later for upgrades, for example the servo horn screw.


do people use red or blue?


and other than the hi and low carb set screws, is there anything that i SHOULD NOT loctite?


thanx
 
blue loktite for the small stuff but I like red for the wheel hubs since it is a big allen screw. driveline stuff with the bigger screws red works.
 
i usually use red loctite for everything i'm not gonna take apart again....and blue for the stuff than i am. the difference is the red has a higher amount of breaking pressure to release. but keep in mind you can use anything you want....if you want to break loose something with red loctite on it...i just use my soldering gun to heat up the bolt/screw and it comes off easy. just something you can use in the future.

I use blue locktite throughout, I absolutely hate drilling out screws if they do manage to strip out :)
