3.2l chain tensioner bolt sealant?
Finishing a top end on my 3.2.
While installing the left chain box I forgot to loop the chain over the stud that holds the tensioner. No problem, just double nut and pull the stud. While cleaning the stud hole with brake cleaner I realized the stud hole goes out the back of the chain box I had noticed that there were a few spots of epoxy sealant on the back of the chain boxes. Guessing one of those spots was the back of this stud. The box is now tightened and sealed to the case with triple Bond and gasket. I'd rather not take it off. And the stud is in place with blue locktight. Anything I can/should do at this point so I don't get a leak at that stud? |

JB weld if you can reach it on the back of the housing. Small putty knife loaded up?

Thanks, I'll check in the morning if there's room for a smear of jb from the back.
