    NOTE:

    The flex plate does not use a locating pin for alignment and will not initially seat against the crankshaft flange, but will be pulled onto the crankshaft by the engine flex plate bolts. This procedure requires a 3 stage tightening process.

  1. Mark or scribe the end of the crankshaft and the flex plate before removal.
  2. Remove the engine flex plate bolts (2).
  3. Remove the flex plate (1).
