24hrs to be on the safe side. I looked at clays and bobs install directions for some of the stuff I couldn't figure out. But yea don't risk having to do it again cuz you didn't wait for the lock tite to complete dry.

Did your check ball come out? I did end up pulling the IPR and now I want to clean it up with brake cleaner so I can get ready for the new seals and loctite. Just wondering if that ball needs to come out because so far it's not.
Clay and Bob? You have links for these threads?

Yes. I bought the non serviceable plug kit as well. Removed ball and cleaned with brake clean.

Mine does not want to come out for some reason. Of course right after I type that the darn thing finally falls out. There was a small piece of metal or debris on it as well. It looks undamaged though.

Ahh that is the two sites I have up on my laptop as I am dong this. I just put the new plug with the new seal and loctite and torqued it. Did you put new seals on the IPR? I am looking around but not finding that I got new ones or I forgot to order them? I can get to it once it's installed if it leaks but thought I had all the seals here. I do have the new large gasket just nothing for the IPR.
