However, the FW does not go back to the original position (center) when released after twisting. Please tell me that I don't need to get another FW... I am planning on taking the FW for balancing today. Hopefully you'll see this message and are able to respond.

Thanks!

The flywheel should return to its original position after being tested. If it does not, the elastomer is failing and the unit needs to be replaced.
