Am about to install the engine into the frame. I have 2x M10 allen head long bolts, the aft bolt threads into the frame. The forward bolt has a locknut. Are these bolt fitted WITH or WITHOUT washers??? Thanks in advance K
No washers on either bolt at the hex end and no washer on the locking nut as that ought to have a serated surface on it.
Thanks for the info, always appreciated The reference material I have viewed, Ducati IPC, old scanned version as well as Stein Dinse shows no washers at all. 1X threaded bolt into frame. 1X threaded bolt with lock nut. 39-44 Nm torque, no Loctite. Cheers K
My rear frame/engine bolt had a mystifying small plastic coin shaped object on top of the thread under the rubber grommet. No idea why or if it was original.
