Not the first time I've heard of it happening. My only suggestion is to make sure the bolts and the holes are clean and dry. I'm unsure if lock washers are a wise idea. A little blue Loctite maybe?

I re-tightened the bolts at school yesterday but today I'm thinking I'll take some of my red loctite and pull each bolt out.

Its nothing but my fault, I should have re-checked them after a few hundred miles but I didn't. Last time I messed with those bolts was last spring when I installed the 6 puck and painted the engine bay.

Re: Getting the Laser ready for AutoX

I've started taking everything out to pull the motor. Kind of a sad thing really but it's time to move on. The motor is going into my Awd Talon along with all my upgrades.





All I need to do is pull the axles and unhook the oil cooler. Hook the hoist up after I find some chains for it and unbolt the motor mounts.
