Mark/B-LOC: Using keyless locking devices in place of keys, splines, and shrink or press fits typically means savings in other areas of machine design, such as smaller shafts and bearings and simplified machining. PT components can be positioned anywhere along a shaft without regard to keyway placement or access for mounting or removal tools. Keyless locking tools devices require only torque wrench access for installation and adequate hub strength of mounted components.Carl/Ringfeder: The main reasons to use locking devices are to eliminate backlash in a connection, eliminate troublesome assembly or disassembly later on, and to have some adjustment to a connection during the lifetime of the component. Traditional shrink fit and press fit methods of attaching components to shafts don''t allow for easy adjustment or removal. Some connections will never be loosened; so attaching them with a locking device only makes sense when using it facilitates assembly. Employing keyless locking devices in the design means smaller shaft sizes because the stress concentration factors of keyways is eliminated. Smaller shaft sizes, in turn, mean smaller bearings and other mating components can be employed.

Visually inspect the upper radiator hose for pressure marks and traces of rubbing at the closest point of contact to the oil filter housing cast boss (see illustration). If traces of rubbing are found, the upper radiator hose must be replaced with the new style hose (See Parts Information).NOTE: manufacturer A modified hose was used in production from approximately mid-November 1995 through June 1996, which included an extra rubber pad attached to the outside of aur the hose in the critical area. If traces of rubbing are found on the rubber pad area of this type of hose, it must also be replaced with the new style hose. Visually inspect the oil filter housing for any sharp edges or burrs on the casting boss. If a tools sharp edge or casting burr is found on the boss, it must be removed using sand paper or manufacturer a fine file.
