That is normal, Just put the converter bolts in it and it will be alright.
I have never seen or heard of any 2 piece automatic flywheel (AKA, flex-plate). Your flex-plate must be broken in two. That I have seen before. Note, the flywheel on an automatic transmission is the torque converter.
sounds like a ele. problem
make sure the park/neutral switch is connected and adjusted properly
Insure there is no pulse before you attach the pads to the victim.
It depends on the year, There should be 2 before the converter and 2 after the converter. There will not be any after the muffler. Your truck may only have one depending on the year and it may have 4
You'll need to either pull the transmission or the engine to be able to get to the flywheel. Once the flywheel is exposed, it's just a few bolts and it falls off in your hands. BTW, when you put the flywheel back on, I would strongly recommend using Locktite or equivalent to keep the bolts from working loose. A flywheel should always be resurfaced before putting it back, unless it's a new flywheel, in which case you should make sure to remove all of the protective oil.
You should check for liquids and flamables. Otherwise, that's it!
From under the vehicle with the lower dust cover removed. You will need to rotate the engine by hand until you have all three started before you tighten any.
onthere should be four of them. one is after the catylic converter. one is right before the catylic converter. the other two are on the motor.
there should be two before th catalytic converter and after
they should be right before and after the catalytic converter
Insure there is no pulse before you attach the pads to the victim.
