I am in the process of replacing a couple of pistons on a 1990 90hp Force using Frank's through the reed opening method (Thanks Frank). I am almost at the stage of putting the new piston in and I was wondering what should be used to secure the rod end cap bolts when I torque them up. I have read and heard people mention Loctite 271 (red) but when I read the datasheet on it, it says that to disassemble bolts that have used this you have to heat to 250C. I know I did not have to do this to initially remove the bolts. Is this what I should use, or should I use something like the blue (242) loctite?
I hope that I never have to remove the pistons again after this, but if I do it would be nice to actually be able to do it.
Thanks
