SV: Tighten _all_ the bolts

["Roland Johansson" <scirocco@mail.bip.net>]

One word for you all: LOCTITE bolt security. I lost two bolts
holding the transmission to the motor block on my way home from
Germany, the other day I almost lost the solenoid on the
starting motor. Secure your bolts and nuts with Loctite
