Crankshaft nut question
Hi guys,

i did a waterpump-seal repair on my buddy's bike yesterday, and had a little scare when taking off the engine-cover. The nut that sits on the crankshaft simply FELL out of the engine when i took the cover off!

It's the bottom left corner nut, under the impeller in this pic:


i ckecked for torque figures and found 15Nm in the manual...but i'm not sure, as i don't really know what this nut is called in english...it seems really not tight for such a nut. (it's a reversed thread by the way)

Could anybody confirm?

cheers,
Jan
