yep my dad came over and looked at it then he took 2 nuts made one a jam nut and took the stud out, cleaned it and then tightened it down in it.. then we tightened the nut right up on it just fine.. im still throwing an extra nut on that one just to be on the safe side but it tightened just fine now.

If it's pulling the stud out of the cylinder, an extra nut won't do anything, it'll only pull it out harder compared to one nut pushing against the head.
