hello ppl, quick question when fitted the pressure plate to the flywheel what does 0 and 120 degrees means?


thanks matt

 

any1?

 

someone must know

 

Matt,
There is a 0 on the flywheel and a mark on the clutch cover - they have to be 120 degree's away from each other because they are the Residual Unbalance marks.


Mick

 

thanks very much mick, ive found the mark on the flywheel, would you know where the mark is on the pressure plate? what if you cant find it?


thanks for your time

matt

 

Matt,
The pressure plate is normally clearly marked with a 0, but some aftermarket manufacturers do not put the 0 on theirs.
If there is no mark, but a balance weight/tag spot welded to the cover - use that.
If there is no mark or weight,then fit it anywhere.

thanks for the info i havent a punch mark on the pressure plate

 

No probs - you might need to change the Spigot bearing in the flywheel while you are at it.

i did try the bearing and it felt alittle lumpy, so brought a new 1 from subaru 11 + vat, last question, spoke to my local subaru dealer about the pressure plate question and explained like i did to you and they said to fit it anyway. what would be the affects of lining the 0 mark on the flywheel with the mark on the pressure plate?

thanks matt

 

It will prob judder if the marks are lined up.

 

thanks
