    Hi!
    My SMR's timingchaingslide fell off from the valvecover. It was glued to into spikes what were at the valvecover. What kind of glue should I use to glue the slide back? Glue should be resistant to heat, oil and vibration. How high temperatures rises in motor?

    Maybe talk to a Sika agent if you have them (As in Sikaflex) They have a huge range of quality sealers & silicones, that or Threebond, used as sealer in most Jap brand cars & bikes for glueing & sealing sumps, timing covers etc.... hope that helps.

    Correct me if I’m wrong, but the slide tensions the timing chain between the cams which puts upward pressure on the slide at all times. As long as the slide is secured and pressed onto valve cover extrusions it should stay in place regardless of glue or lack thereof.
