Default Has any bolt every backed out on u before?

I just did my timing belt and water pump and didn't use thread locker on any of the bolts. Should I be worry? how often do bolts back out? I did torque everything down nice and tight

I didn't actually torqued it to specs because torq wrench was too big. I did take the specs into consideration and estimate with F*d= torque. hopes it is ok.

My right side engine mount bolt backed almost all the way before I caught it. As far as I know it has never been taken out or lossened.

Cheers,
Sean

Those bolts you speak of need only like 8-9lbs of torque...

Once one of my engine mount bolts backed out all the way on me. Maybe it's because taht's the only one that wasn't OEM...
