Your statement that oily threads change torque values worries me a little...a little different area, rod bearings on a gas 4010. I replaced them along with new bolts and I don't remember if they were "oily" or not. I know that I dipped the bearings in motor oil before putting them in. If the bolts did have oil on them, would that change my torque enough to hurt it? The tractor is only used for play and plowing snow here in Indiana. I have run the tractor for approximately 9-10 hours since I worked on it with no noises or problems (knock on wood). Thanks, Mike.
