Howdy,

I'm almost ready to put my engine back together. I've been double and triple checking all the procedures in the Haynes manual. And as luck would have it, I keep coming up with more questions!!!

The six big case through bolts have specialized nuts on their ends. The manual describes them as "sealing ring nuts". My old ones had a red material in there that must have been the sealing stuff. It was dry, brittle, and some had chipped out.

So here's my question:
Do I need to replace them?
If so, who has them?

The manual says to put them on with the sealing ring faces OUTWARDS.
Why?

Thanks for the help!!!

Cheers
Nate
