INSPECTION
Examine the flywheel mounting surfaces, clutch
contact surface, and ring gear. Check condition of fly-
wheel hub and attaching bolts. Replace flywheel if
hub exhibits cracks in the area of attaching bolt
holes. Replace ring gear if the teeth are damaged.
Resurface the flywheel if the clutch contact surface is
scored or rough (refer to flywheel finishing and ring
gear replacement information in this section.
Check flywheel runout if misalignment is sus-
pected. Runout should not exceed 0.08 mm. Measure
flywheel face runout with a dial indicator (Fig. 13).
Mount the indicator on a stud installed in the engine
block or in one of the flywheel attaching bolt holes.
Face runout can be corrected by resurfacing if neces-
sary. Surface grinding equipment is recommended for
this purpose. Stock removal should not exceed 0.25
mm.
INSTALLATION
CAUTION: Use NEW flywheel bolts for the following
procedure.
(1) Clean the crankshaft flange before mounting
the flywheel. Dirt or grease on flange surface may
cock flywheel causing run-out.
