Flex Plate Clocking September 25, 2012, 11:10:00 PM Can any one tell me how the balanced weight on the flex plate is supposed to be clocked? I noticed that their are three "slots" inline with the weight and I know that there must be proper way to install the darned thing, but before I wasted time on researching the subject, I thought I'd ask you guys.Thanks!
