if you change ur flywheel

[JJ@WMS]

FWIW when we removed our stock clutch we did find that 2 of the 3 dowell pins had sheared off the flywheel and were barely held in by the cover plate.

sorry for been ignorant but what are those ''dowell pins'' ???

Interesting information for sure. Several of us here have already replace our clutches and flywheels with no problem so I'm curious as to what it takes to get this to happen.

I'm sure I'll be installing more of these clutches soon so if I run into this issue I will surely report back.

I have to wonder if disconnecting the battery has anything to do with it. I have found when I am working with O2 sensors, if you do not disconnect the battery before disconnecting them from their harness, it will tend to throw a CEL.

Ford has used them on some flywheels of certain vehicles lately so the pressure plate goes into the same spot every time, but you still have to align the clutch disc.
