Do not use too much force when tightening self-tapping
screws into plastic or fiberglass. Over tightening will cause
the threads in the plastic to strip. We recommend that you
stop turning a self-tapping screw once you feel some
resistance as the head of the screw comes in contact with the
plastic. Do not use powered screwdrivers when assembling
this kit. They tend to over tighten the screws. Do not use
thread-locking compound on self-tapping screws. The thread-
locking compound may damage the plastic. IMPORTANT:
Use thread lock on any fastener that is threaded into metal or
fastened with a nut. Vibration from the engine will cause the
screws to loosen if thread-locking compound is not used.
