So, my bro and I took off the tranny and now I have some questions.
1. First of all, there are small cracks in the flywheel. Is this normal/ok or should I get it stepped (or resurfaced...I forget what it's called)? Here is a picture of it:
2. Also, just wondering if someone could let me know how the clutch and pressure plate look. As far as I know, they aren't too old (around a year or two).
Center of pressure plate
Clutch side of pressure plate
Clutch
3. In the opening of the transmission, there are some cracks and scratches in the housing. Should I be worried about these or is it ok?
4. While I have it out, is there anything I should replace? TOB, fork fulcrum ball, fork, etc.
5. When my brother was taking out the speed sensor, he accidentally lost one of the bolts for it. He's pretty sure it didn't go into the sensor's hole but he's not 100% sure. We looked in there and didn't see anything and also shook the tranny around a bit to listen for anything but heard nothing. Should I be really concerned and could the bolt get really far into the tranny if it did happen to fall into that whole?
6. Lastly, I would like to clean this thing while it's out. It's disgusting!! What can I use to clean it, where can I clean, should I be worried about getting any liquid in any part of it, or what do you recommend that I do to clean it? I have access to a pressure washer if that would be ok to use. Here are some pictures of it:
Thanks everyone!
