Star torque it. Torque it until you see stars!

Not quite sure, but I thought it was around 300 ftlbs

FSM says 392-491 Nm (40-50 m-kg,
OR 289-362 ft-lbs)

Its on page C-10 or if your like me and have it broken down to section page 11 of the engine.pdf

hope that helps.

Since the flywheel turns and the Nut rotates clockwise.it should by rights Keep tight when rotating.
I used a Big Breaker bar and Tightened it and then Stomped on the End of it..
the Nut was off before.It was put on with an Impact gun from a Tire Repair Shop(Big rig guys).he came over to the house,.Zipped it off,came back when I was ready and Zapped it back on.I tell ya,That Stupid thing Did NOT want to come off when it came time to Remove it again with Me and Buddy with the breaker Bar!,and the Dude only used a 1/2inch Impact gun!
Torque is Roughly 280ft/lbs.
