Flywheel: Service and Repair
INSPECTION
1. Inspect the ring gear teeth for wear and damage.
2. Inspect the clutch disc mating surface on the flywheel for wear, cracks, and burning.
3. Measure the flywheel runout using a dial indicator through at least two full turns. Push against the flywheel each time you turn it to take up the
crankshaft thrust washer clearance.
NOTE: The runout can be measured with engine installed.
If the runout exceeds the service limit, replace the flywheel.
4. Turn the inner race of the ball bearing with your finger. The ball bearing should turn smoothly and quietly. If the inner race does not turn smoothly
and quietly, replace the bearing. Check that the ball bearing outer race fits tightly in the flywheel. If it is loose, replace the ball bearing.
