While it has been some time since my original posting, everyones comments are grreatly appreciated. I now use properly sized aviation stainless screws with a little anti-seize, and eaxch one gets screwed by hand, no impact, no drill, no Yankee screwdriver, to just tight... I never imagined screws could be such an interesting topic (then again some are interesting than orthers...).

Although a pilot/owner is allowed to remove and replace screws under preventative maintenance as mentioned above, recognize the only approved replacement parts/hardware is listed in your IPC. Anythin

I throw all the screws in a Dixie Cup (should I just call them cups?) and spray them with lube before you put them back In.  They never stick.  You can even use @Piloto favorite WD-40

Great follow up Francis!

 

Welcome aboard Gordy!

Looks like you have commented on a line somewhere in the middle of the thread... but all comments are appended at the end...

What did you have in mind regarding the mechanic’s thoughts?

Best regards,
