I'm replacing the seals in my lower unit (1979 Merc 70 hp outboard) and the
Clymer manual sez to use "Loctite typa A" on prop shaft seals.
What is "Type A' Loctite? If I can't find that, is there an acceptable
substitute?

What you are looking for (I think) is Permatex Anaerobic Gasket
Maker/Sealant/(something or other) at NAPA. It's similar to Loctite
515 and a hell of a lot cheaper.
