Hello
My TR6 motor is finally assembled and ready for the journey under the bonnet. I
need to torque down the dog bolt (the one on the "snout") that holds the fan
adaptor and harmonic damper/pulley to the crankshaft. I'm debating whether to
do it now, or when the engine is in place. At the moment, the flywheel and
pressure plate are on, but the starter and transmission are not.
If I wait until the powertrain is in place, I'll have to use the transmission
to immobilize the engine, which doesn't appeal to me because I might damage the
freshly-built tranny. If I do it now, what's the best way to immobilize the
flywheel? A piece of wood or rebar against the side of the ring gear?
Any thoughts?
Thanks, Tom Marincic
