Re: KG7 torquing flywheel nut?

Hahh, funny thing is that I don’t use that tool. Per a very knowledgeable Merc guy around here, I just protect the nut with with a piece of canvas strap and tighten the nut down down good with a monkey wrench. Scientific, nope … but I’ve never had an issue with the couple Mercs I’ve had with that annoying nut.

As for the nut itself, the recoil pawls engage it when starting the motor. Interesting recoil concept…I’ll leave it at that.
