Seriously, Red is not recommended for use on smaller than 3/8" bolts/

One little help is glue the gasket to the cover, then take sewing thread through the holes and tie the gasket to the cover, then use your silicone over the gasket. Makes it so easy to apply the cover.

The tst kit does come with red loctite.

This thread made me kind of nervous so i ordered the parts earlier this week and tore it down and killed the kdp tonight. Wasn't a bad job at all i didn't think. I dont know how far the pin presses in the block but i bet i drove it back in about 3/16" the timing case on my truck has a big step in it and the pin sits down in the hole a ways so i couldn't tell how much it had worked out for sure. but it sure had been.
