Hi All,
I'm at the point where I need to mount a spinner to my first gas engine, a G-62. This engine has a prop bolt, and not a threaded crankshaft and prop nut commonly found on smaller glow engines, so I'm wondering how to mount the spinner? The G-62 prop bolt appears to have a threaded hole in the end, so do I use a piece of threaded rod in this hole to mount the spinner adapter?? Does anyone know the diameter and pitch of the threads of the hole in the prop bolt?
Thanks,
John

It's threaded for a 8-32 bolt I think. Just go to the harware store and get the longest 8-32 screw you can find. Cut to length. It must engage the threaded hole by at least 3-4 turns, the more the better.
