<p class="x_MsoNormal">I had to loosen the bolts attaching the hinges on my BT7 the other day. 6 of them turned quite easily after some fairly hefty initial work. One needs a couple of whacks with an impact driver to get it started and one was just plain loose.</p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal">So, now I want to tighten them up. Plainly, I want to be able to undo them again at some time or other….</p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal">Does the team think that something like Coppaslip (or whatever it’s called) is a good idea. Half of me says, “Use it. You’ll be able to tighten them up that little bit more while still being able to undo them later”.</p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal">And the other half says, “Don’t use it. It will enable the bolts to loosen themselves off.”</p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal">Which half of me is right???</p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal">Thanks, </p>
