Paul,

I want to reuse the apex seals and side seals. What kind of thread locking compound to
you prefer for affixing the side piece to the apex seal?

The thread locking compound I used, didnt worked out very well.

Kind regards
Thomas

Anerobic bonding adhesive is called out in the shop manual.
Loctite 312 and Primer NF (Trichloroethylene).

AKA Super Glue. It must be surgically clean with acetone or MEK first.
