My '82 = flywheel has 5 bolt holes in an irregular pattern that can only be mounted one way if = all 5 bolts are installed. I can't imagine a way that it could be = off. How do you know the engine is at TDC? Are you looking at the #1 = piston? Are you sure it's a diesel Vanagon flywheel?

Does anyone know if it's possible to install a flywheel

incorrectly on a 1.6 diesel. My engine isn't = on tdc when

I align the flywheel and bell housing marks. = If so, how do

I know the correct position if I were to remove = the flywheel

and reinstall it?
