Just finished replacing my flywheels bolts last week. I was getting a crazy sound when decelerating, thought it was the t.o. bearing....it was the bolts. Pretty much my own fault. Does anyone have the 1990-98 Chilton's "total care care" manual? That's what I use. Back when I was doing the 6bolt swap, I was looking up the torques's for the 6bolt motor. For 7bolt it said @ 98 in.lbs. But for the 6bolt, it said @ 22in-lbs. I thought that didn't sound right, but I figured the book had to be right. The book was wrong...it just took me 1.5yrs to find out. So I checked a friend early Hayne's manual and it said @95in-lbs. So now they're loc-tited and torqued and all is well. That's all that's happened in the past couple of months.
