A flywheel and torque converter imbalance can be corrected
using the following procedure.
- Change the position of the torque converter-to-flywheel 120 degrees
at a time to cancel out engine and torque converter unbalance.
- Recheck in each position for vibration improvements.
- Leave the torque converter-to-flywheel in the best balanced position
if the unbalanced condition still exists.
Notice: Be sure that the bolts are not bottoming in the holes. If a bolt bottoms
the cover could be dented, causing internal clutch facing damage. Always
rotate the torque converter by hand after adding washers to check for clearance.
- Install a longer flywheel-to-torque converter bolts.
- Add and remove washers until the best balance is achieved.
- Inspect for missing or loose torque converter-to-flywheel bolts.
Replace or tighten as necessary.
- Inspect the torque converter for damage or missing balance for
weights. Replace the converter if the torque converter is damaged or the balance
weights are missing.
