The flywheel is located on the crankshaft with a soft
metal key. It is held in place by a nut or starter clutch.
The flywheel key must be in good condition to insure
proper location of the flywheel for ignition timing. DO
NOT use a steel key under any circumstances. Use only
the soft metal key, as originally supplied.
The keyway in both flywheel and crankshaft should not
be distorted. Flywheels used are made of aluminum,
zinc or cast iron.
