Hey, my mechanic installed the JWT clutch/flywheel combo. Now, when he starts up the car, it starts but putters and dies out quickly! WTF? Now, I'm thinking its the crank position sensor or the flywheel not lined up right. Anyone have or heard of this problem before? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Also, does anyone who purchased the JWT combo still have the instructions it came with? If so, please email them to me a.s.a.p.! I want to see/make sure that it says something about putting the dowel pin on the G side of the flywheel as opposed to the altima/maxima side. Read that info. somewhere and just want to verify it before I go and open my big mouth to my mechanic. Please, any help would be greatly appreciated. Post up if you know anything or could point me in the right direction. Thanks!!!

 

PM ScottR; he had a similar issue last fall.

 

yup, this happened to scott. something wasnt aligned correctly during the install.

 

Yeah, looks like they put the dowel pin on the altima/maxima side of the flywheel instead of the G/Z side. Now I got to wait another day cause they basically have to do the job all over again. And of course since they're are now losing money, cause of the time, they aren't in a rush to do it anymore! Incompetent people! I thought since it was my old job that they would "hook" me up but, nope! My old boss put some guy who couldn't speak english, therefore didn't read the instructions. I'm pissed! Believe me, now it was my chance to go off on my boss, all be it my ex-boss, but still, kind of felt good. Anyway, I'll let you guys know what happens tomorrow. I should get it by noon. This is the longest I've been without my baby!!!

 

don't mouth off too much... mr. no-engrish might end up getting instructions to make your car go poo in a couple thousand miles. sort of like restaurants. do whatever only AFTER you get your food.

 

Its is a Flywheel senser. The infiniti dealer forgot to put the screw in so it fell off. I pulled into a parking lot and my car just died and would start. Had to have it flat bedded. Got it in the shop the mech after 1 minute installed the screw and I was on my way.. I was pissed!

 

infidsg35 - I'd love to hear some feedback on the JUN flywheel and NISMO clutch. And did you opt for JUN over NISMO because of weight difference or some other reason? Any comments on the combo are appreciated.
