Juan didn’t want the Vette to defeat him so he came by after work to have another look. We were thinking the worst. A bent or cracked flywheel. We were also thinking that maybe the new bolt he put in there was sticking out to much and hitting the cover that goes below the flywheel. So we took it off, which also requires unbolting the starter.
The only clean part of the cover you see in the photo is where A bolt was hitting it. He put the starter back on and after starting and test driving the car the noise was gone so, Juan took a hammer to the thing and straightened out.
When it went back into the car the clatter was gone. whoo hooo!!! Thank God!
Oh, and no I didn’t clean this thing before putting it back on. I’m sure most would.
That’s great Sal I’m glad you all were able to get it fixed and thank God for great friends!!
Aint nothing a Hammer cant fix. Well most people would of just taken that cover off since you really dont need it around the fly wheel. Old School cars have been like that for YEARS ………. It took chevy awhile to say “you know what, how about we put a cover over the fly wheel”. Thats good you got it fixed. So does that mean you dont want my white camaro anymore??
rob, YES! i still want that camaro! i want to start a family one day too. would make a great family car.
LOL, taking a Jab at the family car bit
