Re: What is this stuff on a pulley bolt?

OK, if it was heli-coiled before, do I have to heli-coil it again? After taking the stuff off the bolt it tighten up nicely on reinsertion. Would thread lock provide any of the benefits of heli-coil?

Remember, when I put the bolt back in, the pulley snugged up nicely, I did not torque it then, afraid of stripping the hole.

Anyone experienced this?????
