After valve adjusting I mounted valve cover back with some loctite sealant. Does it need to dry few hours, or not? To let it dry over night before engine start again or its irrelevant?
Thanks

I haven't had any specific experience with Loctite sealant but if it is the usual silicone based sealant then I usually give it 12 hours at least and 24 if possible.
