I am about to re-fit the fly wheel on my Rotax 912 uls engine after installing a new stator assy. The heavy maintenance manual states that it should be tightened to 45 Nm + 180 deg. Angle to rotation. This should be around 1062 in/pounds. This is a lot for only one stop bolt on the crankshaft. Will this procedure be safe for the crankshaft not to twist under all this force?

The one on the PTO side inside the gearbox gets around 149 ft/lbs. It isn't so bad when you compare. 45nm is 398 in/lbs or 33 ft/lbs. I'm not 100% sure what the extra 180 degree turn would yield, but is common on head bolts and the like to apply a certain torque followed by a certain amount of degree turn. -------- Roger Lee Tucson, Az.
