Dottie,
I can back wot Tanks said.
While we were OTR in 2011, Girt's driver-side mirror bracket worked loose — and you know how big that is, 6" x 18" of cast aluminium.
(I suspect captive nut was over-tightened by someone prior to our ownership.)
Road friend gave me a chunk of Knead-It. Explained the process* & I shoved it into the bolt-hole. Screwed the bolt in & let it set overnight.
BINGO!! No more shakes.
My Good Samaritan also warned me that the bolt was in there for life!
I bought my own from a servo the following week. Still OK, in plastic wrapper.
* You chop a bit off the sausage-roll-like thing & just knead it in your hand until the blue centre is thoroughly mixed with the white outer.
Ready for use!

Re: Wanted = NEEDED
I think they also make a 2 part fuel tank sealer that you use the same way. Petrol is a tricky one to seal, the hydrocarbons tend to eat away the stuff that creates the bond .... but I guess if the tank is empty and metal clean on the outside and inside, then the material should be able to cure before the hydrocarbons have a chance to attack them. There is also a liquid fuel tank sealer popular with the vintage bike restorers. pour it in, swill it around to every surface and join and let it do it's thing. It creates a skin inside the tank that is impervious to any sort of fuel and remains intact until something seriously damages the tank, but a simple retreat and all is good again .....

Por15 is the stuff, have used that on boats and in fuel tanks that react with veggie oil and "KNEED IT" does work on fuel tanks and you don't have to have them empty, you just hold it there for a minute or 2 and it sticks. The other ones work on the same principle, you need the two parts together then apply them to the hole.T1 Terry wrote: ↑Thu Feb 24, 2022 10:59 am There is also a liquid fuel tank sealer popular with the vintage bike restorers. pour it in, swill it around to every surface and join and let it do it's thing.
