"The taper on the crankshaft holds the flywheel in place, the woodfuff key only locates it. You may have to lap the flywheel in with grinding paste. When you get a uniform surface on both faces, clean them well with a damp rag, then spray with brake-clean to remove any oil. Fit the key and flywheel then tighten the nut to the correct torque setting. Hope this helps."
