Listers,

 PLEASE lock washers of any kind, spring/wave/star, will not keep flywheel
bolts in place.

 Please be safe!

 In fact use red on the clutch cover bolts. A clutch the comes adrift can
cause a lot of damage and your ankles will be close by.

 Yes, the original tab washer will help keep a bolt that is loose from falling
out but it will not keep it tight.

 The only way to get a bolt tight is to torque it to spec and use RED
locktite. Locktite, red, in this case will help keep a bolt from be affected
by vibration.

 It works why not use it.  John Taylor  Greenfield, Ma Gloucester, Ma USA. *
