Inertial mass (assist smaller engines by storing and releasing torque on take-off)

Vibration dampening (the make-up of the flywheel also lends itself to dampening)

Power transfer (this is how the power is transferred from the crank to the transmission)

Engine starting (this is where the starter teeth engage the flywheel ring gear)

What functions does the flywheel have on the 3.5 hp Briggs and stratton engine?

Pulling the engine's start cord turns the flywheel. The flywheel has a magnet or magnets on it that create electrical charge as the flywheel turns, causing them to pass other magnets. The electrical charge travels to the spark plug and starts the engine. Once the engine is running, the inertia created by the flywheel's turning has enough momentum to keep the engine's crankshaft turning between the piston's power strokes. During operation, the flywheel's magnets also induce voltage in the armature to keep the spark plug firing. Those magnets are called a Magneto ignition.


Hey I am replacing the engine in a 98 dodge ram 5.9L How do you disconnect the flywheel from the torque converter the flywheel is in the tranny housing by 2 inches and I cannot separate them?

Remove the starter and the dust shield. Remove the four bolts (spaced every 90 degrees around the flywheel) and then the torque converter will be loose.
