    Evinrude Manual (revised April, 1954) states:

    Sportsman Flywheel Nut – 25 Ft. Lbs.

    Thanks – I figured somewhere in the 20-25ft.lb. area, so I set it at 25. The pawls don’t quite lay flat against the edge of the nut at that setting, so I’ll go a little more to assure the pawls stick out as far as possible to catch the ratchet on the recoil.
