Just doing the rear main seal on the 300 while the gearbox is out and a new clutch going in.
Checked the manual for the torque settings and saw a reference to:
"Position selected shims, spacer and drive plate
to crankshaft."
Mine does not have any shims or spacers. The pictures seem to refer to a flex plate, rather than a flywheel, but I can't tell for sure.
So should a manual 300 have any shims between the flywheel and the crank shaft?
