    When it absolutely has to hold, I use PK blue. Plus you can always store spare used gum under the seat

    Locktite 271 for the pulley ,two drops and 55-65ftlb , Locktite 243 on rotor screws  and 30-45ftlb ,rotor screw to be replaced after three torque cycles .Check that these specifications are applicable to your model.
    Do not go by Loctite colors as there are a number of grades that use the same colour but have different applications and retention qualities.

    Yes Hilly ,year and model is specific for fastener specifications , i just grabbed a early 2000's ,manual for reference only .
    Your collection of products will cover a lot of applications for vehicle service.Mine is tragic,but necessary  [not all are in photo] you have already seen the tension wrench set.
    What i said about color not being a reference is more than represented in my set ,there are five greens ,three reds , three blues , one purple ,one yellow,one white.

    Cheers,
