Problem with Flywheel timing...
Short: Anyone that has done a JWT flywheel, how do i time it?
Long: So i replaced the clutch on my car and the flywheel had to be taken off for a new friction plate (JWT setup). Now i did not know that the car had a timing sensor on the flywheel so i put the car back together and it would not start... no spark. Turns out the timing on the flywheel was off. SO now i get to take it all back apart and adjust to the correct timing. Luckily i was able to unplug the sensor and the car will still drive... for the time being. So i need to know anyone that has done a JWT flywheel, how do i time it?

I think your supposed to put the flywheel in the same position it was in when it was taken off. Thats what I did when I changed my clutch. The sensor your talking about is the crankshaft position sensor. Hopefully someone with more knowledge can chime in. I would like to know more about this myself.
