Td5 Anaerobic Sealant

Just throwing this out there, I couldn’t find the Hylomar Brand in my neck of the woods, but found a 50ml tube of Loctite 518 for $23.00

My first question was, how much is enough? This 50ml tube was more than sufficient for the cam carrier.
Not sure why some vendors want to sell a 300ml tube of Hylomar. Seems like a lot of waste unless you are doing production work.

Manual also states 20 minutes working time. I was right up against that limit with everything clean and ready to go. Get the Q-tops before hand to clean excess from oil galleys.
