- Install the manual transmission engine flywheel to the crankshaft, if applicable.
- Install the automatic transmission engine flywheel to the crankshaft, if applicable.
- Apply threadlock GM P/N 12345382 (Canadian P/N 10953489) or equivalent to the threads of the flywheel bolts.
- Install the engine flywheel bolts.
- Tighten the engine flywheel bolts first pass in sequence to 20 N·m (15 lb ft).
- Tighten the engine flywheel bolts second pass in sequence to 50 N·m (37 lb ft).
- Tighten the engine flywheel bolts final pass in sequence to 100 N·m (74 lb ft).
Important: Note the position and direction of the engine flywheel before removal. The flywheel does not use a locating pin for alignment and will not initially seat against the crankshaft flange, but will be pulled onto the crankshaft by the engine flywheel bolts. This procedure requires a three stage tightening process.
