What I meant was the lock washers and losi-loc kept the screws from coming off.

Only way to really tell if they aren't marked is to use a good set of calipers to measure them. The thinnest should be the 2.0mm second should be the 2.3mm. But I would just measure them to be sure.

I've had a few screws loosen up on the motor mount, never all 4 tho. A ball driver is a must cuz a regular hexdriver won't go in straight, also I like to loctite them at least a night before, if you do it at track the loctite doesn't dry quick enough.
If I have to do it at track I use red.

I always use a dab of RED stick loctight on any metal to metal screws, especially the engine mount screws. The red stick loctight cures quickly and holds strong, but isn't impossible to remove when you need to. The stick stuff isn't as strong as the liquid is. Just use a little dab and you won't have any issues getting the screws out when you need to, but they WILL NOT come out on their own.

Same thing happened to me with the Losi quick change mount on the Losi box. I went back to the stock mount and it was fine. Easier to start and a lower center of gravity cant hurt
