Can a bad flywheel cause a car to start?
If the teeth on the flywheel are damaged, the flywheel may have trouble engaging with the starter motor. This could make it difficult or impossible to start the vehicle. If you are having issues starting your vehicle, you may want to take a look at your starter as well.
What makes the flywheel turn on a starter?
The starter is an electric motor that spins a small gear; that small gear then spins the flywheel making the engine turn over.
When do you need to replace the flywheel and clutch?
Gear Slippage can happen if the surface where your clutch is attached is very worn or got a bad surface. Gear slippage happens when you shift to a higher gear and the engine RPMs increase, but the wheels’ speed stays the same. The longer you let the problem go on, the more likely it is that you’ll need to replace both the flywheel and the clutch!
Why does my Briggs and Stratton starter keep breaking?
Another likely reason for the starter gear’s breaking is ‘worn flywheel.’ The flywheel is placed in the middle of the transmission and engine. As I already mentioned above, the flywheel is engaged by the pinion gears so that your lawnmower starts.
