Rex P5 problems - 05-02-2006, 09:58 AM

When I tighten the flywheel down, it does not spin freely, it feels as if the flywheel is contacting or rubbing the crank case. When I loosen it ,it feels okay. My vspec uses the same flywheel combo and does not suffer from this, I can move the piston easily up and down with my finger(not past the pinch)on the vspec but not on the P5. I tryed both the cone that came with engine and the one that came with the kit, both are doing the same. Did I over tighten? aren't I supposed to tighten it down? what do I do?

Flat head screwdriver? Try to get behind it and wegde it off.


Do not go gentle into that good night, Old age should burn and rave at close of day; Rage, rage against the dying of the light. Though wise men at their end know dark is right, Because their words had forked no lightning they Do not go gentle into that good night. Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay, Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
