**new question, the mark on the flywheel was in the down position when removed, so i marked the new one same location upon installation- so for doing valves and timing, what position is this in now, 180 off of the #1TDC?
New flywheel is not marked for Tdc and it does not have the dowels/pins to align and mount the clutch to. Can I mount it with out these.? Attached thumbnail(s)

Another thing I have noticed on the new flywheel being sold as German OE is I don't see a single drill mark for balancing. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/WTF.gif)
I have a hard time believing that they are popping out perfectly balanced flywheels |

QUOTE(Mark Henry @ Jan 12 2014, 12:40 AM)  Another thing I have noticed on the new flywheel being sold as German OE is I don't see a single drill mark for balancing. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/WTF.gif) I have a hard time believing that they are popping out perfectly balanced flywheels I npotuced right away the they are not identical , not having all the holes that the original one had. But I got it mounted last night along with the pressure plate and transmission is back in. Thanks for the advice. Response was a. It sloe last night and I wanted to get it put back together , with the help of billh1963, thanks bill for the guidance, I got it done. All new . Hope its all done right. Has to be better than it was. Based in previous owner paperwork I m ow the clutch had been replaced about 1995 . Figured with 140k miles it could use it , it was slipping but that might have been partly due to oil fro leaking RMS. Now , looking forward to new brakes next week and test drive! |
