RTV instead of Loctite?
I'm reassembling my transmission, and one thing I noticed is that on the bolts that did not have lock-washers there is a little bit of RTV on each bolt. Is this SOP? I have blue Loctite available, which seems like the better solution, but I'm wondering if the RTV was used for any particular reason (besides perhaps the previous assembler not having Loctite on hand)
