The answer should be obvious, but its not to me right now...I have a C14 and the secondary is loose. There's only 4 screws, and I think they are all for columation. How to I tighten the secondary housing on the corrector?

The corrector will need to be removed. For most Celestrons, the secondary housing can be tightened by the simple expedient of holding onto the outside of the secondary holder and tightening the baffle that surrounds the secondary. Unfortunately, some baffles are glued in place.
You might want to stop by the C14 group (Yahoogroup) and see if they have any tips. Whatever you do, don't loosen the central screw. The result will be _CRASH_!
