Steering Link Rod Fasteners

IMPORTANT: The steering link rod that connects the steering
cable to the engine must be fastened using the steering link rod
fastening hardware supplied with engine. Never replace the
locknuts (11‑16147‑‑3) with common nuts (non‑locking) as they
will work loose and vibrate off, freeing the link rod to disengage.
