Ok so I really really do not want to have to remove the
Transmission to check the flywheel. As a matter of fact that flywheel was replaced about 18 months ago. However this still doesn't make sense to me. This morning it started grinding again.
Recap: Installed new starter 4 days ago. Started the Jeep about 40 times successfully on Sunday. Worked fine Monday. Tues I had 1 grinding started. Wednesday I grinding start. Today it took a couple of grinding tries before it started.
New starter, flywheel 18 months old. When I put the new starter in it worked fine on the first start then started grinding. Took it out and put it back in a few times then I got my 40 successful starts in a row on Sunday.
Questions:
What are the odds that i'm missing teeth on the flywheel?
Whats involved in pulling the
Transmission (auto) on a 90"
AMC 258 i6 / 4.2l YJ if I really need to check the flywheel. Do I have to pull the whole thing out just to inspect the flywheel?
