Rebuilt A 833 front oil leak

Speaking of those specialty screws, above, they have a nasty habit of coming loose. At one time I had the idea of installing "star washers" on them, which dig into the aluminum, and I thought that would keep the heads tight.
Well, it turns out that those bolts are super hard, and the Star-washers failed to hang on to them, and they came loose again. :(
The only thing that has worked for me is Loc-tite. I use the blue, cuz it's easy to negate with a lil heat, when you want to take the bracket off.

Which brings me to the lil short shift levers on the forward ends of the shift-rods. It doesn't take much time to pound those slots out, and then the levers will refuse to stay tight, and you will tear your hair out resetting your neutral-gate over and over and over, and eventually you will tear the threads off the pins.
Here is the easy solution;
First; this works best with the cover on the bench.
Second; you will need some red loc-tite.
Third: those levers are super hard, and you can hardly modify them. But if yours are "wallered out", you gotta try. What I do is, with a center-punch, place a divot near each corner, driving metal towards where the pin will call home. I do that in all 4 corners and both sides, until the lever has to be helped home onto the pins. Then I remove any protrusions that will interfere with tightening the nuts. You will need a small grinder.
Speaking of nuts, those are special, get new ones. Standard grade 5 split lock washers will not do. Get the nuts with the serrated saw-tooth flanges as part of the nuts.
Next, install the levers on the pins and seat them down by installing the nuts and tightening them just enough to pull them into alignment, then remove the nuts. Now comes the important part .....
fill the cavities with red loc-tite. I'm talking around the flats of the levers. then a drop on the threaded part, then install the nuts torqued down.
Next, immediately flip the cover face side down. This is to keep the loc-tite from escaping out the back, where it likes to creep down into between the cover and the internal levers. When that happens, the whole thing binds up and the cover will not shift, and you gotta start over. By flipping the cover face down, this prevents the loc-tite from doing this monkey business.
Immediately, shift the levers a few times to make sure it still works, then wait 5 minutes and shift it again. Repeat for 30 minutes until the loc-tite has set.

Ok now, the last time I did this on my A833, it was 2004, and they have never yet needed to have the Neutral-gate re-aligned. Halleluyah.
