I guess it needs to be quite hot as I used the blue loctite 243? I think - the one designed for engine internals. Will the heat effect the magnets at all? Would hate to screw those up or it'll be a whole new flywheel and sprag assembly!

Edit:
After writing the above I started Googling. It seems magnets will lose their magnetism if heated above a certain temperature. The specific temp varies depending on the material of the magnet. It can vary from 150 - 800 deg C depending on the material. So maybe I wont heat it!
