Q: How to ensure proper servicing and repair of the flywheel on a Lincoln LS?
A: The procedure for servicing the flywheel begins with manual transmission removal then proceeds with clutch disc and pressure plate removal. First detach the bolts to take away the flywheel from its position. The flywheel installation needs careful attention because one hole exists in an offset position for alignment purposes. The flywheel installation follows the opposite steps of removal.
Q: What should be checked during the inspection of a flywheel that must be replaced on Lincoln MKZ?
A: The replacement of the flywheel stands as the necessary solution because it cannot undergo resurfacing. Check the flywheel during inspection for all conditions including cracks, worn ring gear teeth damage, chip damage, cracked ring gear teeth, and discoloration.
