Right, I'm whipping the engine out this weekend to do the rear main oil seal :headbutt:
What I want to know, is there a particular way you have to refit the flywheel, ie order of bolts to do up, what torque they need to be tightened to, do I need to use threadlock??

Also, how do you remove the subframe mounting bush then replace it? Any particular method or is it just a case of use a threaded bar & big socket to pull it out the bottom?

Thread lock on Flywheel bolts. I reused mine, but you're supposed to get new.

The fly will only line up with the holes on the crank one way, so no need to worry.

like allready mentioned , either thread lock and re-use or
new bolts (they come thread locked :wink: )

subframe bush is a right coont to get out , i would personally
burn the old rubber our first and take it from there .

is there to achieve please for the love of god tell me ?? :P
