Everyone talks about using a torque wrench on the flywheel nut. I have looked into it and it says for my motor it should be 720-780 in/lbs but I can’t even find a wrench that goes that high. Any suggestions?
Someone should have told me I could divide that by 12!! LOL – obviously a Noob when it comes to torque wrenches!!
Haha! 🙂 It’s great that you are using a torque wrench on the flywheel nut. Some people use impact guns, but I believe proper flywheel torque is important for both you and your motor’s safety. Keep up the good work!
