Flywheel.

[esso]

My clutch has started to slip so next week i`m taking the car to bits(again!) to fit a new one.Its done 15k miles on this clutch which was re-lined,prior to that it had done 20k miles on that clutch.What i`m not sure about is the condition of the flywheel,if I need to replace this is there anything I need to watch out for and any info I require when changing it?Can anyone tell me the torque settings for any significant bolts?
Thanks.

Alright Al

A step by step guide with torque settings is in the AJP Manual. If you are going to be at McD on Sunday I'll get them to you.

If you need to replace the flywheel - you could consider putting in a lighter weight one from RaceProved. I did this in mine when replacing the clutch and found the flywheel to be damaged. It's not the race one - it's just a lighter one than standard - the car is still very "drivable" in traffic - but it helps it spin up quicker.

i changed to the lighter flywheel as thought that was a must if changing the clutch. i have no slow running or lumpy running problems so would recommend it even if the old one is ok....
