I have a Mercury 60hp big foot. The manual recommends using loctite 271 on the bolts. I am concerned with this adhesive, I may have a problem removing the bolts in the future.<br /><br />What is your recommendation?
They'll come off again. They just don't want them coming off before you do! I don't like to use the stuff for allen-head or screw-head fasteners but for traditional bolts it's o.k.
I think Mercury is using 271 across the board,as a corrosion solution.For years I've been greasing water pump housing screws to help them come out later.Now they say Loctite them.<br />DHP
