forgot thread locker on flywheel bolts (
Put a new flywheel on my freshly rebuilt 22re. Dropped the engine, had just buttoned up the bell housing to the block, and realized I forgot to put thread locker on the threads of the flywheel bolts.
Reused the bolts that were on the old flywheel, didn't clean them as they looked fine. All bolts went in smoothly, started by hand and were torqued down to 80 ft/lbs and triple checked..
Trying to decide if I'm going to drop the tranny, or move on and start the cam run-in tomorrow.
Any input or advice much appreciated.
