Oil pump plug

[steffen707]

Wow haven't posted in a year and 9 months. Hope you're all doing well.

Its been a while since I did my build, but i noticed my oil pump plug vibrating in and out and bumping against my washer blocking plate. Perhaps this is why I have a jump in temp after WOT runs where I snap the throttle shut.

Anyways, what do you guys hondabond? I've never used the stuff, and want to fix this right. Should I get a new o-ring and put hondabond on that? Also the plug doesn't sit tight against the washer plate, I should probably put a shim in between the plug and the washer so its in constant contact with the plug so it can't move.

Yes. And check the o-ring. Don't hondabond it. Good to hear from you.....
