Getting ready to mount my motor back on and i can't find the flywheel washer that goes behind the bolts.

It is a retainer - has tabs to bend over against the heads on teh bolts to prevent them from coming loose. Loctitie thread locker is a good replacement.

It's a flat ring/washer, no tabs. Not necessary but nice to have the right part.

Must have gotten it confused with some other engine. Years may be getting to me.....

A flat washer can't work as good as the original four hole retainer. With the retainer the bolts can dig into the softer metal than the flywheel and be a lot less likely to work loose. A flat washer can turn on the harder flywheel metal and be more likely to come loose.
Locktite might do the trick but I've never used in on flywheel bolts??????????

I might have one laying around. Let me know if you want me to check. John Smith probably has some, too. |
