Volvo: Rear Main Replacement, flywheel, r0


Question
I recently dropped the tranny and replaced the rear main seal on my 89 240 DL.  Now the car will not start.  I have spark to the plugs.  The car ran fine the day I started the project (took one week).  Does the flywheel have to be indexed for correct timing on the 240??

Answer
James,
If the flywheel is the one that has the small outer ring with the windows it needs to be indexed. This link should clear up the proper indexing of th flywheel.
