Yesterday, I discovered my tow point for tubing/skiing was a little loose. I opened the engine hatch to discover the two nuts were loose. Glad I caught that or "another" piece of hardware would have been lost. Looks like it's time to utilize the loctite. Check yours.

Use the BLUE locktite which gives enough friction to keep the nuts from coming off but not so much to keep you from removing them if you need to.
