I need to install a new flywheel key, apprently the old one wore out probably due to me installing it incorrectly last time, anyway is that suppose to just sit evenly in the middle of the shaft or is it suppose to be tapered along with the shaft, in other words is it suppose to get wider as the flyweel goes down, hope that makes sense.. Anyone have the torque spec on that flywheel nut??

If I'm not mistaken, the flat of the key should be parallel to the centerline of the shaft. 90 ftlbs.

Thanks willybwright, I think maybe I just didn't torque it down enough
