- TOOLS REQUIRED
- J-43653 Flywheel Holding Tool

REMOVAL





IMPORTANT: It may be necessary to remove chamfer (bevel) from edge of an 18 mm socket in order to get full socket engagement on thin headed flywheel bolts.

IMPORTANT: It is not necessary to orientate the flywheel to the crankshaft. It is balanced separately from the engine.





1. Remove flywheel attaching bolts. Use J-43653 to prevent crankshaft rotation.
2. Remove flywheel, if vehicle is equipped with a manual transmission.
3. Remove flywheel retainer and flywheel for vehicles equipped with automatic transmission.
4. Clean thread adhesive from flywheel bolts. Use a nylon bristle brush to clean bolt holes in crankshaft.
