First of all, I didn't realise Renard had posted a video on this thread as well, cheers!
Anyway I got around to looking at this tonight. When I unbolted the prop, a whole load of oil dropped out (I did drain the TB first
), and noticed that the locking nut was very loose.
I am making a wild guess that is not right? This would explain why there are traces of oil under the car where the centrifugal force is forcing oil out of the gap where the prop bolts the the flange.
Also, does anybody know the correct torque setting for the locking nut? (FOUND IT: It's 94ft/lbs)
