1995 25hp Mercury flywheel nut torque

[fisho92]

Hey guys does anyone know what the torque spec is for the flywheel nut on a 95 25hp mercury?

Tight as you can get it. Seriously. I use an impact wrench set at 90 ft. lbs. and, since the fool 'wheel keeps moving, it's hard to say what torque I end up with.

You should be tightening a cap screw, not a nut. OEM specs are 57.5 lbs/ft (78 nm). Re-check the torque after running for an hour or so.
