PLEASE, NO LOCTITE. LOCTITE MEANS THAT YOU NEVER WANT TO REMOVE THE SCREW
AGAIN, which is going to play hell if the alternator itself ever craps
out.


I've put a lot of loctite on a lot of phillips head screws - and they come
out just fine. In fact, in wet environments where you have steel screws in
aluminium parts, they come out easier with loctite because it tends to seal
the threads and reduce corrosion.

Note: Use the right grade of thread lock...
