Technically, it never touches the flywheel - the clutch disc does. You can stop the flywheel (stall-out the engine) by engaging the clutch in gear with the brakes firmly applied.
Depending on your problem it may be a serviceable part, however if your issue has anything to do with you clutch plate or fly wheel then no- it is not adjustable. Most of the major components of your clutch (fly wheel, clutch plate, throwout bearing are serviced when clutch is or needs to be replaced because in order to access these parts you must remove the transmission.
Just make the clutch pads line up with the clutch disk. the pressure plate can only go on one way due to the positioning dowels
the clutch pressure plate is bolted to the fly wheel the transmission is free to pull out once you remove all the bolts from the bell housing the throw out bearing comes with it hope this helps
The exact way that this is done is notnecessarily the same on all vehicles or motors. However it involves the The removal of the tail shaft, the removal of the gearbox, then the removal of the pressure plate that holds the clutch plate in place from the fly wheel. (the big disc on the back of the motor). When the pressure plate is gone the clutch plate will come out. When replacing the clutch plate it has to be put back in place centred up so that the drive shaft goes through and fits into the centre of the fly wheel. I always used an old drive shaft to hold everything in place while bolting the pressure plate back on. After that just do everything in reverse.
== == You need to lift the vehicle using a lift, and observing all safety proceedures associated with this type of equipment. The drive shaft/CV joint must be removed. The transmission must be unbolted & seperated. Using a trans jack to support the trans, it must be rotated to give access to the pressure plate, clutch disk, throw out bearing & fly wheel. The disk/plate assembly must be removed, then the fly wheel. The fly wheel should by resurfaced at a machine shop. The fly wheel is then bolted back in place, the clutch & disk installed using a clutch alignment tool, then pressure plate bolts must be torqued to specs. slide the throw out bearing onto the shaft & reassemble. If you're not up to this, you'll need to take it to a shop. Be prepared to pay 600.00-1,000.00 dollars US for this. It's a pain, I've done it twice (high performance clutch & fly wheel kits in my performance Tib).
A automatic has a flex plate and a tork converter.. A manual trans has flex plate and fly wheel...
yes ! either seal from crankshaft (engine)or gearbox drive-shaft seal on bearing can wear out. if so oil will spray around inside bell-housing and will get on to clutch plate/pressure plate and flywheel - replace clutch (suggest clutch kit -clutch-plate/pressure-plate and thrust bearing) you MUST also replace seal or is WILL happen again. also check engine oil and gearbox oil levels - it came from somewhere!!
No, a clutch plate and a flywheel are not the same thing. The clutch plate is a component of the clutch system that engages and disengages the engine power from the transmission, allowing for smooth gear changes. The flywheel, on the other hand, is a heavy disc that stores rotational energy and helps maintain engine momentum, contributing to smooth engine operation. Both are crucial for vehicle performance but serve different functions.
The Nv5600 used a single disc clutch. So If you have two pressure plates it is an after market clutch assembly and may be a non service able unit.
If it is a stright stick, then the clutch is sliping. Need to replace clutch and pressure plate and turn fly-wheel. Replace throw out bearing If it is a automatic trans then it's burnt up. NEEDS REBUILT
When you push in the clutch if it rattles that is not the transmission but the clutch throw-out bearing. not necesarily the throw out bearing it could also be bad springs or fingers on clutch pressure plate could be cracked or loose fly wheel or could be one or more bad bearings in the gearbox
I have seen some that would go in backwards But 99% of them will not set flat on the fly-wheel if it is backwards. The clutch disk will hit the fly-wheel bolts if not installed right.
