Title: Gasser ? flywheel confusion
Post by: morgoon on May 13, 2010, 12:13:59 pm
Ok so I am taking the head off of my 1.6na core motor

but in searching and reading various threads...

Bentley and many posts here say my flywheel should have a TDC diamond in it and appear with a cast 0

but instead I have a series of degree marks

like this :

20 IIIII 10 IIIII 0 IIIII 10
                    0

Zero cast underneath the factory scribed zero

Is this a gasser flywheel?

I searched and could not find a good pic of a gas flywheel

its a "universal" flywheel. as long as it has a 0 on it for tdc, then you are good, only thing you have to worry about is if you dont have a 0 mark. most gasser flywheels have no tdc mark, just a timing mark, usually at 6* ATDC
