A flywheel is on the outside of the motor, typically has fins on it, it is weighted to keep the inertia of the motor spinning to help crank the motor over
On the back of the engine, mounted between the engine and transmission, inside the bell housing. You cannot see the flywheel. The starter is connected to the flywheel when you start the engine.On the back of the engine, mounted between the engine and transmission, inside the bell housing. You cannot see the flywheel.

No, a rusted flywheel will not cause the engine not to turn over.
In most cases the flywheel is bolted straight on to the end of the crankshaft.
A bad flywheel can definitely cause the engine not to turn over. The flywheel has teeth. If the teeth are chipped or broken, then the starter can not engage to spin the engine over.
no
take the tranny out and the flywheel is right on back of the engine, unbolt the flywheel and take it off and install new flywheel with new bolts and torque them down.
No. It positions the flywheel in the proper place for the ignition timing.
Crankshaft directly connects to the flywheel.
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.
depends on the engine size the 4.6 flywheel to crank is 62lbs and pressure plate to flywheel is 18lbs
