Hey
I have to change the compressor terminals on a WDC 087. Do you guys use any thread sealeant on the threads. There is a oring. This is a spark plug style terminal.
Thanks.

I can't speak for that particular situation... but I use loctite 567 on just about everything (that needs sealed anyway) and it works great.

I do. I use 554. clean the threads real good. I also use a primer with it. never had a leak using it. this is on the ones without o-rings.
I been using 515 on the ones with o-rings, nothing on the threads. just the
o-ring. dont forget to unhook the wires on the motor side.

515 will also get the notorious oil filter and spindown covers to seal up.
