What is the general theory behind coarse threaded bolts and fine threaded bolts/nuts?
Are coarse threads used in high load environments and fine threaded fasteners used in high vibration environments?
When re-installing my headsteady bracket on my 850 MkII I noticed that the 3 bolts that secure it to the head use only flat washers. Would stainless steel spring washers be useful or is that introducing an unnecessary component? Or is Loctite a better option?
Getting loctite on the middle bolt and not make a mess would be challenge.
Anything in conact with the engine is in a vibrating environment!
TT
