- Mark or scribe the end of the crankshaft and the manual transmission flywheel. Refer to Engine Balancing .
- Remove the manual transmission engine flywheel and bolts.
- Remove the automatic transmission engine flywheel and bolts.
Important:
• For manual transmission applications, note the position and direction
of the engine flywheel before removal. The flywheel does not use a locating
pin for alignment. Mark or scribe the end of the crankshaft and the flywheel
before component removal. The existing manual transmission engine flywheel
must be installed to the original position and direction. The engine flywheel
will not initially seat against the crankshaft flange, but will be pulled
onto the crankshaft by the engine flywheel bolts. This procedure requires
a 3 stage tightening process. • DO NOT remove the propeller shaft hub or flexplate from the automatic
transmission engine flywheel. The flywheel, propeller shaft hub, and flexplate
are balanced as an assembly. If service is required, the entire flywheel
assembly should be replaced.
