Had a Helicoil installed in oil drain threads by an experienced mechanic who's done probably thousands of them, and he used Loctite black on the Helicoil when screwing it in.
The bike was run pretty hard for a few weeks and the drain plug was pulled for an oil change. After draining the oil, the drain bolt was put back in and using a brand-new calibrated torque wrench was torqued to 15 ft-lbs (service manual says 14-22 ft-lbs).
When approaching 15 ft-lbs, something didn't feel right and the bolt was taken out and the Helicoil inspected. Well, the Helicoil had turned about 1/2 a turn into the crankcase. As another test, the bolt was put back in and torqued to 15 ft-lbs then removed. The Helicoil had turned another 1/2 turn into the crankcase. The mechanic was called and he said bring it back and he'll put a new Helicoil in no charge.
I have since been scouring the internet to maybe find out why the Helicoil was turning with the bolt and have come across more than one site where I read that while many people use it, Helicoil does not recommend the use of Loctite when installing Helicoils. One even said they do not recommend it because it can actually cause the Helicoil to rotate which is exactly what this one did.
Is it possible that the Loctite black did more harm than good, actually causing the Helicoil to turn with the bolt? When the mechanic puts the new Helicoil in, should he be asked to NOT use Loctite on it this time?
