I know there's been a lot of controversy abut the wf engine - personally I wouldn't be wothout mine - it's light, precise and much less physical to drive than a prokart - and I've had a few!

So far the reliablility hasn't been too bad but I did have a problem yesterday that surprised me: the post holding the exhaust valve rocker came undone and the collet fell out. After replacing it and tightening it all up again the engine ran fine for the rest of the day - in fact, better than before!

Has anyone got a quick fix as to how to stop it coming undone again, or do I need to replace the post? In view of the fact there isn't a lock nut, is loctite my only solution?
