I agree with Graham - but would add the warning that if you can't use
the Rotax locking peg, your choice of screw should be limited to high
tensile only.
A mild steel screw could shear in the crank the moment any significant
torque was applied to the crankshaft - needing an engine strip to remove
the debris.

The manual I have talks of "the crankshaft locking screw (part no 240
880)
>which is part of the standard tool kit supplied with each engine". Does
>anyone HAVE one of these. I don't remember seeing it !

There is a screw in the crankcase, LHS forard , take it out and you'll
see
the crankshaft has a hole to take the locking screw, so find a screw
long
enough to reach the hole, turn the crankshaft until the screw enters the
locking hole.
