3M Marine Adhesive Sealant 5200

[L DC]

Does anyone know if this adhesive, 3M Marine Sealant
5200, would work on a broken nipple from the locking
diff plastic servo’?

As I wiggled the tranny to detach it from the engine
block on my '85 QSW for a clutch job, one of the
nipples on the plastic servo broke off.

I glued it with an adhesive that supposedly works even
on metal/plastic that comes in contact with either
gasoline or oil.

Anyway I re-installed the tranny and when I took a
good look at everything to make sure it was in order,
I discovered that the nipple had come apart once again
where it had been glued.

So much for that adhesive!!!  

I believe Cody is having the same issue and had
inquired about a good adhesive to glue a broken servo
nipple.
