How important is that screw ? The bolt is good. I tried cleaning out the threads on the mid-section housing but seems like one of my predecessors put some b.s. like JB Weld or epoxy in there. That's what the crud that came out looked like. My fathers idea is to double layer some plumbers tape on there and see if I can get some pretty good snugness. Manual calls for 30 -32 ft/lb. Hellicoil the only way to go ?
