Clutch Assembly: Installation

  2. Ensure large cover plate is properly seated. Retaining ring ends must be between 2 slots in release plate. Use Clutch Aligner (VW547 ) to center clutch disc on flywheel. If new flywheel is to be installed, a new timing mark must be cut into flywheel 1/4" (6 mm) to right of TDC mark.
