Think if found my problem. That blue loctite doesn't actually work(cheap unknown brand)
Tomorrow if it doesn't rain I'll REAL loctite them in place with my new bolts.
And the problem will be sorted alongside my new throttle cable. Maybe a fresh magic tree too.

Re: Manifold/throttle body studs
These are the studs. They have tj go through the throttle body into the heater plate then into the manifold

Re: Manifold/throttle body studs
There too short they'd screw pretty much all the way in until there's no thread left, so I can't, that's why I'm using thread locker

Re: Manifold/throttle body studs
Well if you don't loctite them, they'll just unscrew as you do the nuts up. Or we're my studs shrunk or the manifold got that much bigger
How hot does the throttle body area get?

Manifold/throttle body studs
Got some now do I use my red llctite and put them in or what?
Have the original ones in there but they seemed so loose as I was changing the hoses I thought ide change them, do I loctite the new ones in to hold them still while I do the throttle body up or some other way.

Mine seem to have shrunk ? Almost loctited it and then added the heater plate and throttle body to find it way too short to get a bolt on.

Re: Alternator not charging
Tomorrow getting some coolant and then I'll run her and see what results I get. Hopefully all is well.
The power steering belt looked good and strong but the alternator belt was shot.
Renewed them then tomorrow I'll get some antifreeze and run her up.
Hopefully all goes well.
