flywheel woes
The WR engine rebuild has been challenging (to say the least)... And the prep work for CO setting and MOT saw the worst nightmare come true... It's dropped its recently fitted flywheel timing pin.
So, the question is one of balance really... The engine and flywheel were calibrated together, clearly removing the flywheel, drilling it, and refitting a new pin will, by default, upset the balance. (Thus negating the benefits/costs of all the balancing work, I assume)...
Just how critical is the flywheel balance?, we've got two options now, refit a pin to the broken 'balanced' flywheel and hope it holds or fit a spare WR flywheel?
Thoughts please?
Kind regards
Ian
