These instructions are authoritative only if the engine has been disconnected from the vehicle; if it is left in place, then only the transmission, bell housing, and clutch have to be removed to get at the flywheel. Automatic transmission vehicles use a driveplate instead of the flywheel to be removed by the use of bolts in the crankshaft. Should the ring gear teeth or driveplate show signs of wear or damage, they should be removed and replaced with new ones, the mounting bolts being tightened to the required torque. First of all, one has to center-punch the flywheel and crankshaft end to ensure that they may be put back only to their initial place. To lock the crankshaft from turning one need to insert a large screwdriver or pry bar between the ring gear teeth and the engine block , but not against the oil pan. You may need help to turn the front pulley retaining bolt whilst holding this with a large wrench or socket and a breaker bar. Before taking out the flywheel it is also appropriate to provide support to it to avoid serious harm or destruction. Third, extract the flywheel mounting bolts by the crankshaft flange and pull the flywheel backward in order to disengage it. Installation also appears to occur in the reverse sequence to that which is used for the removal process.
