2001 GMC Jimmy Parts Questions & Experts Answers

• Q: How to replace the engine flywheel on 2001 GMC Jimmy?

  A: Replacement of the engine Flywheel starts with dismantling the transmission and clutch assembly when the vehicle contains this system. Begin by extracting the engine Flywheel bolts before taking out the engine Flywheel (automatic transmission when operating or (manual transmission according to configuration). When you replace the engine Flywheel for a manual transmission you should install new weights in specific positions which match the original positions of old weights. Record where Flywheel weights should be placed before performing assembly work while inspecting and cleaning all components. When installing an engine Flywheel that will carry manual transmission weights you should maintain both the original position and length of the weights for proper installation on the new engine Flywheel. The new Flywheel weights need installation at a level that matches or falls slightly behind the engine Flywheel face. Install the engine Flywheel or onto the Crankshaft after positioning its locator hole above the locator pin. The installation process requires using a sequence to progressively tighten the engine Flywheel bolts until they reach 100 nm (74 ft. Lbs.). If equipped with a clutch assembly the installation sequence requires it followed by the transmission.
