Flywheel Dowel Removal/Installation

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.

NOTE:

Take care not to damage the flywheel dowel holes or the surface areas around the flywheel dowel during removal.

Remove the flywheel dowels by using a drift pin where the flywheel dowel is installed in an open hole and a pair of locking pliers where the flywheel dowel is installed in a blind hole.
NOTE:
- Care should be taken to drive the flywheel dowel squarely into place until it is fully seated and to not damage the surrounding surface areas.
