I was reading over the manual and some questions popped up. First, should I really use Loctite red on the bolts threads? Secondly, is it ok to coat the specified areas with oil instead of grease, and lastly in the package with the new pump assembly there are two pick up tubes provided. Do I just use the one that matches the color of the one I'll be removing and does it HAVE to be Loctited to the housing ?
