[Rovernet] 2000TC Flywheel - Clutch burned out

Hi Bob

The flywheel face isn't recessed, so how much it has been surfaced should not matter to the pressure plate. At some point you might have a problem with not enough travel for the release bearing to disengage the clutch, but I can’t see how you’d get a slipping clutch.

That said, what's the engine number? If it starts with 400, 415 or 416 I’ve got a flywheel here in BC.

Yours
Vern
