We figured we would make a nice little post and maybe get a discussion going on this. Lately we have had a few times where we had to the heads off of a few DSMs and for the 2nd time we found what has become a pretty large concern. Moly Lube has been found on the bottom of the ARPs. You can guess where this is leading. Since ARPs are spun all the way down the moly lube when placed on the bottom has no where to go and causes the head studs to back out. Result = being able to put the slightest amount of pressure by hand on the Studs and they spin freely and back out. And if your ARPs are backing out take a while guess what is happening to the head gasket and such.
