C-AEG420 Light steel flywheel (pre-engaged starter type) Fitting instructions
This flywheel is not balanced so should be before use, along with the prospective clutch assembly.
Before fitting the Mini Spares light steel flywheel, carefully examine the crankshaft taper for any burrs or other protrusions caused by fret-welding of previous flywheels. All protrusions of any sort must be removed as they will cause incorrect seating of the flywheel which could, in turn, cause this fret-welding to occur and permanently damage both crankshaft and flywheel. A recognised method of ensuring correct fit is to use fine valve lapping paste to lap the flywheel on to the taper.
A good, correct fit will be confirmed by seeing an even grey finish over the whole of the taper on both components. The paste should then be thoroughly washed off using a strong cleaning solvent (such as cellulose thinners or brake cleaner).
