pjowo1 Posted July 23, 2012 Report Share Posted July 23, 2012 Hi I am in the process of rebuilding my Fantic 240 engine after the Kick start shaft snapped but I cannot find the correct Torque for the bolts that hold the 2 crankcases together the bolts are allen bolt heads and I think there is about 10 in total. I have the new crankcase half gasket do I need to use a silicon sealer on the gasket when assembling the 2 halfs ? How do you set up the kick start shaft to be in the right position ? Thank you Kind Regards Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grib Posted July 27, 2012 Report Share Posted July 27, 2012 Hi Paul, I torque the crankcases to 10Nm, I don't use any sealant on the gasket just make sure everything is VERY clean. There is a photo of my kickstart shaft before I took it out for the first time here: http://s8.postimage.org/iyf83asd1/DSCN0618.jpg (and yes the crank was scrap). Have you got the owners manual scans from Bob Wrights website? (http://s292.photobucket.com/albums/mm22/fantictrials/fantic240manual/) and the engine diagram from Bill Pye's site (http://www.nickandkaren.co.uk/frankfieldfantic.co.uk/Fantic%20240%20Professional.pdf) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
