OK, when I got the flywheel out of Babydoll, I found that the inside surface where the O-ring seats was all grungy and the O-ring was trashed. I cleaned the area pretty good, especially in and around the groove where the O-ring seats. The flat surface inside this area is very rough, and I was wondering whether this would be a problem.
I posted pictures in the Saving Babydoll thread. Is this anything that I should be worried about? I have another flywheel, but this one is in better shape (the other one needs resurfacing, the dowel pins are bent, and it needs a new pilot bearing). |
