Honda 22100-RB0-005 Flywheel

To do the above, one has to lift the vehicle on jack stands, then disconnect the required transaxle. For models with a manual transaxle, remove the pressure plate and the clutch disc and it might be wise to inspect or replace the clutch parts and pilot bearing at this time. Next, you need to take out the bolts which fix the flywheel/driveplate to the crankshaft, but be careful not to let the crankshaft rotate this is can be done by using a small screwdriver or a long punch . Gently unscrew the flywheel/ driveplate and, while doing this ensure that you hold it up because, at this point, it is rather heavy. Remove the grease and the oil from the flywheel and check it for cracks, rivet grooves, burned areas, and score marks, but the light scoring may be eliminated by use of emery cloth. One has to inspect if there is any crack or breakage on the ring gear teeth then ensure that the flywheel is even on the straight edge. Ensure that the mating surfaces of the flywheel/driveplate and crankshaft area cleaned and inspected and the r.m.o. seal if leaking is replaced before refitting. If required measure the flywheel runout and if it is not within the limit or if there are deep wear grooves, take the flywheel to a machine shop for resurfacing. To fit the flywheel/driveplate onto the crankshaft ensure that dowel pin holes of flywheel/driveplate aligns with crankshaft and if there are spilt bolt holes then ensure that they are also aligned, apply thread-locking compound on the bolts and then tighten them evenly in an X pattern. The end of the installation shall be done using the principles of the removal process in reverse.

The release fork boot must be removed, and the release fork can be pulled from the transaxle for bearing replacement. Hi-temp grease should be applied on all pivot points during installation.
