Flywheel Position


Recommended Posts

On a '21 Dodge does it matter how the flywheel is clocked? There are two faint lines scribed on opposite sides of the flywheel face that lined up with the crank throws when I took it apart the first time. Now its apart again for a balance issue, and I'd like to make sure I have it on correctly. The only thing the Mechanics Manual says is "When flywheel is installed on crankshaft be sure it is assembled so that the timing marks are in proper position with the crankshaft." I don't see any other timing marks on the flywheel.

Not that I know of on the flywheel. Your timing is set to fire #1 plug when your crank is 5 degrees PAST TDC., or 5/8" measured on the flywheel. I would mark this spot on your flywheel while you can and if you can reference that mark in a place from outside it's housing would be nice to have for future timing issues.
