normally expect 25-30bhp difference between flywheel and wheels figures on these. There's a few variables though, depends on the type of rollers, tyre pressures and even your gearbox oil condition and temperature

some of the ideas and methods are quite out-dated (it's emerald, they're a decade behind), but it's good to have as a starting point for the beginner
renault manual is full of mistakes and contradictions too. I use 20nm then 115deg +/-15deg for the crank pulley.
It also says to refit the lower cover before fitting the crank pulley, which isn't necessary at all
with inner and outer boots split you WILL need a new shaft, as the inner one cannot be replaced.(assuming phase 2 172??) Genuine only, reconditioned shaft on exchange basis.
