Flywheel: Customer Interest
Flywheel - Excess Paint in Mounting Holes

Number:

86-273-6

Section:

6

Date:

APRIL 1991

Corp. Bulletin  No.: 136001

Subject:

EXCESS PAINT IN FLYWHEEL MOUNTING HOLES ON GOODWRENCH ENGINE

Model and Year:

1984-85 CITATION 1984-86 CELEBRITY

NOTE:

THIS APPLIES TO GOODWRENCH PARTIAL ENGINES ONLY (P/N 10101781)

Condition:

Incorrect clamp load on Flywheel bolts.

Cause:

Paint accumulation in the Flywheel mounting holes. This will create a false torque condition. The Flywheel may seem to be secure,
however, it will soon begin to move under normal engine conditions and may elongate the mounting holes in the Flywheel.

Correction:

The Flywheel mounting hole threads should be cleaned out with a tap. The holes should be retapped with a M-10X1.5-6H standard tap.

Use Existing Labor Operation Number and Times.
