40 - 50 lb (same as your 6hp, I think). Torque it to 45 lb after cleaning the shaft and the flywheel with acetone or lacquer thinner.

Thx oldboat1. Yes I do have a 6 and a 9.9. Wasn’t sure if it was like the 6 or the 9.9. I’ll write this down and keep it for future reference and be able to help someone else..

Thanks oldboat1. I was beginning to wonder if I had done something wrong on here. Seems like no one wants to answer my questions? :lol::lol:
