Flywheel Lock

Fidalgo911S · 02-01-2004, 12:46 PM

I replaced my clutch recently and was conemplating buying a flywheel lock with all the other parts I had to get. But before I did was down at Ace Hardware and saw this metal plate. I thought it would be just the ticket and it was. So for about a dollar I bought the metal plate and a bolt rigged up a perfectly working flywheel lock.

So if you need a lock and want to save a few bucks give this a try. By the way the bolt on the left is an extra starter bolt.

Practically anything with two holes in it will work (get your mind out of the gutter)

Now, that's what I call a high speed starter gear!

I just threaded a long bolt through the flywheel so that it hit one of the webs in the engine case. It seemed to work fine...was this wrong?

Anyway, looks good Fidalgo.

I saved even more effort and just used a double box wrench between the bolts.
