My new one had what looked like clear silicone around the outer perimeter edge bonding the sleeve to the housing. I never checked but I don't think that sleeve is magnetic. It would be nice if you could find out what they use.

Well if it is magnetic, obviously the magnets from flywheel don't hold it in place well enough, because mine slipped out and rubbed stator wires and engine case. let us know how the jb weld works, worth a try I guess. To bad you couldn't get warranty. I have personally seen four removed that all got warranty in this past month, I am the only guy that didn't because I had an sp not snow check and my warranty was done a year ago. Never again. Booooo.

I can see atleast two patches of glue on the flywheel so no the magnets isnt whats holding it in place.

I think the jb weld will work quite well. Shouldnt be that much stress on it.
