  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.
