REPAIR INSTRUCTIONS, PART 1
Flywheel Removal
[212 UC]
1. With the engine stand rotated so that the
engine is inverted (crankshaft horizontal),
loosen all six flywheel retaining capscrews.
On vehicles equipped with an automatic
transmission, it may be necessary to remove
additional components to gain access to the
flywheel retaining capscrews. Refer to the
Automatic Transmission Drive Arrangement
Assembly Instructions, 5-902, for instructions
regarding these arrangements.
2. Remove two of the flywheel retaining
capscrews that are opposite each other
(Figure 182). Then, install two longer
capscrews or studs to allow the flywheel to
be safely removed from the crankshaft.
3. Remove the remaining capscrews.
4. Carefully tap the flywheel, alternating from
side to side, to work it off the aligning dowel
pins.
The flywheel is heavy. Lifting the flywheel will
require the help of an assistant or the use of a
suitable lifting device (J 25026-A or
equivalent). Attempting to lift the flywheel
without such assistance may result in severe
personal injury.
Remove the flywheel timing pointer, if present, to
avoid damaging the pointer during flywheel
removal.
