FLYWHEEL AND STATOR SERVICING
Flywheel Installation
Install the outer edge of flywheel key parallel with
centerline of crankshaft.
Thoroughly clean the crankshaft and flywheel
tapers with Cleaning Solvent and let dry.
Apply a thin, even coat of Nut Lock to the inside
taper of the flywheel.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT over apply Nut Lock on
flywheel taper. This prevents Nut Lock from
migrating into upper seal of crankshaft.
Align the flywheel keyway and install the flywheel.
Coat the threads of the flywheel nut with Gasket
Sealing Compound. Install the nut and tighten to a
torque of 140 to 160 ft. lbs. (190 to 217 N·m).
IMPORTANT: Perform the timing verification
procedure after flywheel removal or replacement.
Refer to TIMING ADJUSTMENTS on p. 112.
CAUTION
To avoid injury, keep hands and fingers
clear from underside of flywheel. Flywheel
can snap toward stator with great mag-
netic force.
