Flywheel Runout Check Procedure

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 Ford Escape. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Mount the special tool so that the indicator contact point rides on the clutch disc contact surface.
  2. Rotate the flywheel and check the runout. If the runout exceeds the maximum allowance, install a new flywheel.
