Default *QUESTION: CHIPPED TEEH on toda flywheel

hi, i bought the flywheel used, according to the seller he got it resurfaced and everything looks good, besides a few teeth on the flywheel that are chipped on the side.

MY QUESTION IS WILL THIS AFFECT PERFORMANCE OR WILL IT AFFECT ANYTHING AS A MATTER OF FACT?

here are some pics..i highlighted the areas (teeth) i am reffering to... thanks in advanced

That, and your starter may slip a bit sometimes too.

i wouldnt sweat it - thats like one "starter grind". (where you or your girlfriend tries to start your car & its already running...) Nothing to flip about. Dress any burrs with a file & all is cool.

that's extremly minimal and it won't affect the flywheel itself.
I had worse damage to my teeth on the flywheel I bought off here and it works perfectly fine, no fibration, just needed to get it re-surfaced.

This is a common problem with used flywheels and isn't a big issue unless there are cracks or actually missing teeth

Mr.RHTuner

thanks once again . you pretty much answered my question in the other thread i just posted them in both places bc i wasnt sure which one was more accurate.

the flywheel was resurfaced and balanced so i think i should be fine

no teeth missing or cracks
