Fuel Pressure Reg. install ?'s

chris91LX · 11-24-2001, 01:00 AM

Do I put thread locker on the three allen head bolts that hold the fpr in? It looks like something was on them when I pulled them out, but the instructions that came with the Aeromotive piece i bought doesn't say anything about thread locker or loctite. Thanks in advance.

I wouldn't.

In my opinion, loctite would make those little bolts next to impossible to remove if the regulator needed replaced.

I didn't and wouldn't. Like he said, they would be damn near impossible to remove. They shouldn't work thier way loose as it is.
