Section 1.16.2.1
Inspection of the Flywheel

Inspect the flywheel as follows:‪

1. Visually check the flywheel clutch surface for scoring and wear.
   1. If the clutch surface is scored or worn, replace the component. Refer to "1.16.3 Installation of Flywheel" .
   2. If the clutch surface is not worn or scored, proceed with step 2 of inspection.
2. Visually check the flywheel clutch surface for cracking.
   1. If the clutch surface is cracked, replace the component. Refer to "1.16.3 Installation of Flywheel" .
   2. If the clutch surface is not cracked, proceed with step 3 of inspection.
3. Visually check the flywheel ring gear for worn or damaged gear teeth.
   1. If the flywheel ring gear has worn or damaged gear teeth, replace the component. Refer to "1.16.3 Installation of Flywheel" .
   2. If the flywheel ring gear teeth are not worn or damaged, proceed with step 4 of inspection.
4. Visually check the flywheel-to-crankshaft contact surface for fretting, brinelling, or burning.
   1. If the flywheel-to-crankshaft contact surface is fretted, brinelled, or burnt, repair the component with emery cloth or a stone. Refer to "1.16.3 Installation of Flywheel" .
   2. If the flywheel-to-crankshaft contact surface is not fretted, brinelled, or burnt, proceed with step 5 of inspection.
5. Visually check the flywheel surface for grooving.
   1. If the flywheel surface is grooved, replace the component. Refer to "1.16.3 Installation of Flywheel" .
   2. If the flywheel surface is not grooved, reuse the component. Refer to "1.16.3 Installation of Flywheel" .

Section 1.16.3
Installation of Flywheel

Install the flywheel as follows:‪

1. Install flywheel to the crankshaft using six retaining bolts. Torque bolts in diametrically opposite pairs to 137 N · m (101 lb · ft.). See Figure "Flywheel Torque Sequence" .

   Note: Lightly lubricate bolts with lubrication oil.
