My transaxle guy uses an industrial/wholesale sized package of Loctite
Anaerobic Gasket Maker. It's a red goo that only cures when squeezed
between two sealing surfaces. Hylomar has been around a while, and is
ok, if the surfaces are PERFECT. Hylomar isn't as tenacious as the red
stuff. I don't have the Loctite part # handy. The key word to look for
is Anaerobic. I saw some on the shelf at a Grand Auto. It comes in a
fairly small tube. You don't need much for one case job.
