There's the problem. 45 min? I'm pretty sure the package says to let it sit overnight before gasing up.

Teflon tape...

I have been using teflon tae for years, but after reading all the posts about loctite, I decided maybe I should get some. Messy and you have to wait. Stick with teflon tape. Works perfectly and is easily removed.

o.k look locktight is supposed to be used for keeping torque on a bolt. not for sealing. "Loc-Tight" makes a special Thread Sealing liquid, think it is purple, might want to check that out instead of using actual "Thread Locker"

I mean you guys are taling about using Red Locktight, I mean Geez, I use that stuff work, And i have you use an Impact to break them loose.

Well its not :) you need to wait a few hours

Should wait overnight.Never use red!Red is supposed to be permanent!

Yeah, teflon tape is the way to go if you ask me. I might look into getting some purple loc-tite though. Too bad I'm nearly broke

[WARPED1]

There is no loc-tite in my home.Only rolls of teflon tape!
