Flywheel Nut Torque: 75 N·m (7.6 kgf·m, 55 lbf·ft)

Things to check before purchasing, if you removed the side plate:

1) Check both oil seals - There are two oil seals. Each located at either end of the crankshaft. When you remove the side plate the seals might get damaged and need replacing. A damaged oil seal will leak! Replacements available on the model page.

2) Check the bearing in the side plate for damage - Replace if there is any play, wobbling, is hard to turn or there are any noises when turning. Replacements sold separately on the model page.

3) If the side plate broke due to the crankshaft wobbling, be sure to replace both crankshaft bearings and inspect crankshaft.

4) Always use new gaskets when rebuilding to ensure a tight seal. The crankcase gasket should never be reused.

You will require a gasket kit to rebuild your engine. Do not reuse the crankcase gasket as they are a single use item. Gasket Kits are available on the model page.

In a small enginegaskets and seals are used in many locations to improve the seal between components. They are designed to prevent the fuel air mixture from leaving the cylinder during combustion. They are also used to keep oil from leaving the crankcase. One defective engine gasket or seal can cause a significant loss of horsepower. 

Once the Engine is Rebuilt:

Once the engine has been rebuilt, set your Valve Lash Clearances to 0.015 inches OR 0.4 mm for both Intake and Exhaust. (If not running correctly, open the exhaust to 0.020 inches OR 0.5 mm).

You will need a Feeler Gauge to set your Valve Lash Clearances.
