  To All,
   I was the originator of the original question about using locktite. The reason that I asked was that there wasn't any locking tabs or lock washers in place when the flywheel was removed, just four bolts. I have looked in the Bentley Manual, the Haynes manual, TRF's red book, Moss's catalog and Victoria British's catalog and none of them show anything but four bolts holding the flywheel to the crankshaft. No other locking mechanisms are shown. I just wondered if it would be prudent to use locktite in this situation and if so Red or Blue. This is for a rebuild of a TR250 motor.

  Maybe I am missing something. Are you guys assembling the flywheel without 
lock tabs? I don't understand what Locktite is going to do for a properly 
torqued bolt with a properly installed lock tab.
