For 1990-2009 cars only
- Install the flywheel to the crankshaft.
- Apply threadlock GM P/N 12345382 (Canadian P/N 10953489), or equivalent, to the threads of the flywheel bolts.
- Install the engine flywheel bolts.
- Tighten the engine flywheel bolts (1-6) a first pass in sequence to 20 N·m (15 lb ft).
- Tighten the engine flywheel bolts (1-6) a second pass in sequence to 50 N·m (37 lb ft).
- Tighten the engine flywheel bolts (1-6) a final pass in sequence to 100 N·m (74 lb ft).
Important:
• Note the position and direction of the engine flywheel before removal. Mark or scribe the end of the crankshaft and flywheel before component removal. The existing manual transmission engine flywheel must be installed to the original position and
direction. • The flywheel does not use a locating pin for alignment and will not initially seat against the crankshaft flange, but will be pulled onto the crankshaft by the engine flywheel bolts. This procedure requires a 3 stage tightening process.
Notice: Refer to Fastener Notice in the Preface section.
