Okay,
I took off my clutch and had some questions since I don't know a ton about them.
I know a little, but hoping to find some answers.
1. I had made a complaint early about my car shuttering at low RPMs or while in netrual.
I think I have found the problem. It appears some of the flywheel bolts have been rubbing
against the clutch plate springs. You will be able to see it in the diagram. I am guessing
that the flywheel surface has worn down enough to make contact with springs? What is your
take on it? I figure the shutter is like a tire that lost a wieght while it's rotationg. I guess
since the bolt heads have been worn down, it could throw off the balance of the flywheel while rotating?
In this picture you can see that the flywheel on the edge where the red arrow points to,
it's worn down to about 1/16th of an inch? Is this considered alot where the flywheel is
no good anymore?
Also I noticed that the flywheel has hairline cracks in it. Cracks don't appear to be too
deep, but with the flywheel bing down 1/16th of an inch..is it beyond having it resurfaced?
In this picture below would you consider this clutch pretty much worn out and no more life
to it? What should be the thickness of a new clutch?
Now I notice that the flywheel is made in Germany. Is there a supplier that makes them
for the early 92 Diablo's that is relatively cheap dollar wise? If so who has it or what part
number is it?
Also to do I need t buy a new clutch plate? or can the springs be replaced?
When I assemble the flywheel back on the engine, does it matter where it lines up?
What I mean is that there are magnetic sensors or pick ups on the flywheel...as long
as the bolts match up to where they go on the flywheel and engine am I okay?
Thanks for all the help and support. I also hope what I am doing here posting this
information as I learn helps others out down the road. That is why I am taking the
extra time to do the pictures and so on.
Thanks!
Adam
