yep the dust and the mettle filings from the duel mass kills the bushes in the starter

but some times the ring gear goes on the fly wheel and that also kills the gear on the starter motor

when the duel mass flywheels kick to 1 side they cam jam up the starter and burn it out also pop,s a main fuse from the battery

the duel mass eats away at the gear box if the play in the duel mass is very bad smile

Thats what were doing at the moment changing all duel mass in to solid its only the clutch and the slave cylinder that is different

the only difference is is a smother take off on the duel mass

the new ford fiesta 58 plate,s have gone back to solid flywheels now thank god

Pah, people have lived without them (essentially a harmonic damper) on Diesels up to now grin

A small trade off for the cost of the things plus the other damage they can do.

Came in with banging in the gear box

it was down to the slave cylinder bearing had fell to bits in the box and seized the clutch up

I kept one from a few years ago, it had disintigrated into about 30 different bits. You know what it is when you prize the gb off and bearings drop onto your face.
