Super Jet SuperJet Flywheel Torgue? and color of Locktite

[spookyjjj]

Wondering what to torque my flywheel to when I put on my new Zero fw and what color of locktite. Ive heard not to use Red locktite. I'm not doing the rope trick lol I bought a cold fusion flywheel holder. Also do I have to pull my gas tank or can I getaway without removing I'm also going to advance my timing 3 degrees

Thanks for the info

Clean tapers and oil on the bolt. I torque to 50ft-lbs.

Yamaha spec for flywheel is 47 ft lbs. Dry is fine for a stock steel hubbed flywheel or a little loctite if you will feel better. A little oil under the bolt flange is good practice but do not oil the threads as this only messes with the torque reading.

i use red locktite on every flywheel bolt i put in and anybody that doesnt, is taking chances. i've seen the bolt come loose and bust the front cover several times. i torque to 65 or 70 on every one. i never have flywheel or bolt problems

Thank you...................... Any info on pulling the flywheel without removing stock tank?

I chopped the black center threaded piece on one of these

so it fits easily between the flywheel and tank. I added a few washers to each of the three bolts that go into the flywheel.

Remember to not got too deep with those 3 bolts so you don't damage the stator. I was able to thread those 3 in by hand.

I threaded the black center piece through the silver triangle piece then chopped it so I wouldn't have to worry about getting the damaged threads through after the cut.

All back together but removed tank instead of trying to work in a confined space. Advanced my timing 3mm. 1st hit of the start switch and the bendex didn't catch but after that it did for 6 start ups then didn't catch. Should I be concerned? The Zero fw had mint clean teeth

Where my bendex fits in the cover I found a washer that was loose on top of spring so I greased it in while putting back together. I read that there's washers sooo does that mean one washer at each side of bendex spring or 2 on top?

Do you guys loctite the flywheel key? I read that somewhere...

One washer on each side of the bendix spring.

Have seen some do it to lock key in place during assembly but not necessary at all.

Neck snapping good time adding that fly wheel!!! I can't imagine how a jetnetics or a TBM would do as far as performance

Reviving an old thread but this just happened to me on a flywheel bolt installed with 2 stroke oil on the threads.

I also didn't lap the flywheel to the crank snout with valve grinding compound like I should have.

There's never time to do it right, but there's always time to do it over...

I red loctite it and torque to 65. I use that part designed to lock the flywheel in place, forgot who sells it but best thing to have in the tool chest.

I've never lapped a wheel or snout but I've taken a file to snouts and sandpaper to wheels. This primitave junk isn't rocket science but it doesn't let you get stupid and get away with it.

Nice move grabbing the CF flywheel holder, way better than the rope trick. Torque spec for the flywheel nut is 85 ft-lbs, and use blue Loctite (242), not red. Red can make future removal a nightmare, especially on the crank threads. You should be able to do it without pulling the tank, just tight working space.
