Yes it can. It's not only purpose to start the vehical but it does connect the trans to the engine. Tarns to the flywheel to the torque converter then the engine. They all lock together
The flywheel can be cracked or the teeth on the flywheel can be broken or worn. Either of these conditions require the flywheel be replaced. I would also replace the starter when replacing the flywheel. This will prevent damage to the new flywheel from the worn teeth on the old starter.
Yes Most cars have a solenoid that blocks the lever from moving from park unless the brake lights are on. If the brake switch is faulty it will not come out of park.
if it is in fact the starter, it is probably engaging the flywheel. starter may be faulty.
Because the flywheel needs to spin in order to cool the coolant that's in the radiator. While the car is moving, the flywheel is moving anyway. However, while in park, the car is not moving, and therefore the flywheel is not moving either. Every so often the engine will rev, spin the flywheel, and keep the engine from overheating. This may be the worst answer ever written. I can"t tell you what is wrong but I can promise it is not the flywheel. The flywheel is in the back of the engine, it connects the enginge drive to the transmission, it also has the teeth that the starter uses to turn the enginr to start it. The part the last responder was refing to is the colling fan. While a cluth fan (which a 95 jimmy has) can spin faster than the engine RPM, it wouldn't reflect on the tachometer. I would guess you have an issue with a TPS (thottle position sensor, or the IAC (Idle Air Control).
If the break is strong enough to prevent the car moving the and the clutch is not disengaged or being feathered, it will stall. If the break is not strong enough to prevent the car moving the car will move but the breaks will begin to heat up.
No, there is no need to replace the flywheel but it is a good idea to have the flywheel surface machined.
No. If your Cat. is plugged up the car will start but then die. Any other problems it won't prevent it from running. It might not run well but...
No, and you need the flywheel if you expect the car to move. Timing is adjusted in the distributor, not by the flywheel.
yes you can all you need to do is switch the automatic flywheel and putt on a standard flywheel and make sure the clutch from the transmission will bolt up to the flywheel.
most likely cause will be a faulty fan speed resistor.shouldnt cost more than $50 to replace
The starter is underneath the car on the passenger side. The flywheel is in the transmission bellhousing.
