No…. It is not necessary to replace the fly wheel but, it is recommended that the fly wheel be "turned" to create a new surface for the new clutch pack. (Much in the same way you resurface a disk or drum for new brake pads or shoes.) In the event that you don't have a machine shop in your area, a good emery cloth rubbed in a spiral motion on the fly wheel to knock the "glaze" off should suffice.
Transmission won't shift out of 2nd gear?
First check the transmission linkage and make sure it is actually clicking into gears. If not, it may need to be re-adjusted. Next, your transmission may be in "limp home mode" which is popular with those transmissions. There are 2 speed sensors in your transmission, an input and an output. These tell the transmission what speed the engine is running and tells the transmission when to shift. They run about $17 each. Make sure to pick up a deep dish socket to fit them as well. Other than that, you may have more serious problems and you should take it to a shop. Hope this helps!
