The Flywheel is brand new, and great care was taken to set it gently down.

Not even a sputter. Just turns over smooth.

No. OEM from Pelican as part of a master kit. DMF

CPS ohms exactly as described above. Will reinstall.

Used a color inspection camera and looked at all the teeth on the flywheel. They are right there and perfect.

Thanks.
