Engine Flywheel Cleaning and Inspection





Important: In order to maintain the proper component balance, contact surface taper, and heat transfer, manual transmission flywheels are NOT to be machined.

1. Clean the flywheel in solvent.

Caution: Refer to Safety Glasses Caution.

2. Dry the flywheel with compressed air.




3. Inspect the manual transmission flywheel for the following:

* Damaged ring gear teeth
* Loose or improperly positioned ring gear
The ring gear has an interference fit onto the flywheel and should be positioned completely against the flange of the flywheel.
