## ⚙️ Key Features

-   Flywheel housing from the Engine group
-   20.28 kg
-   Supersedes 22232992
-   Listed for 26 applications across TAD, D and TADH series engines

## 🔌 Function

Encloses the flywheel and joins the transmission or drive to the back of the engine, carrying the starter motor and setting the alignment between the two.

## ⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

-   Oil weeping from the housing joint or pooling in the bottom of the bell
-   Starter not engaging squarely, with uneven pinion and ring gear wear
-   Knock or vibration traced to a loose or cracked housing
-   Cracks running from a mounting boss or the starter aperture
-   Dowel bores or fastener holes found wallowed on strip-down

## 🛠️ Service Notes

-   At over 20 kg this needs support during removal and fitting
-   Check the rear main seal and the flywheel itself while the housing is off
-   Fit the locating dowels and torque the fasteners in the specified sequence, since alignment here sets the whole drive line
