Looking for suggestions on a thread sealer/locker that would be heat and fuel resistant and seal against bolt thread vacuum leaks in an intake system.
I am dealing with a steel bolt in an aluminum manifold in an air cooled engine, so it gets hot. Through the years the bolt has worked the alunimum a bit so it's not a really snug fit.
The main focus is sealing but I need it to stay put against engine vibrations in a vintage Brit bike.
I wasn't sure if thread locker sealed the thread space to the needed degree.

That Triumph in your pic brings back memories. My pops had a 750 Bonneville back in the early 80's. Couldn't tell you what year the bike was though.

Thanks. Bought it new 47+ years ago. First of the "CoOp" bikes.
