9. Remove the flexplate guide bolt through the engine flywheel housing access
opening. Replace it with a self-locking bolt. Tighten the bolt finger tight.
NOTE: DO NOT tighten any flexplate-to-flexplate adapter bolts until
all of the bolts have been installed and tightened finger tight.
10. Rotate the engine crankshaft to install the remaining self-locking bolts into
the flexplate adapter. After all bolts have been installed finger tight,
tighten M8 bolts to 33–39 N•m (25–29 lb ft) and M10 bolts to
63–73 N•m (46–54 lb ft).
11. Install the flywheel housing access cover, if used.
