Re: torquing flywheel nut

I used an elec impact wrench on mine.
I hammered it home like a lugnut on my truck, around 100ftlbs.

100 to 105 foot pounds is correct. Basically, you need a reliable torque wrench and a method of holding the flywheel as you use it.

The socket for the nut is SAE 1-5/16.
