Mercury Cougar Flywheel
The Flywheel for Mercury Cougar stores engine momentum for transmission to facilitate smooth power delivery while allowing the vehicle to start quickly and giving a positive clutch bite. The Flywheel is attached to the crankshaft, and its weight regulates the stop and start combustion pulses, which means the Cougar has a steady idle and smoother low speed manners. The crank is spun by a starter pinion that grips the Flywheel ring gear when the key is turned, after which a clutch disc presses against the Flywheel face to transmit torque. The early Cougar versions had a solid design, but its later Mercury models were fitted with a Dual Mass Flywheel, which connects two plates with springs to silence vibration. A solid unit is sometimes resurfaced to remove the heat cracks, but a Cougar with a damaged Dual Mass assembly usually needs to be replaced entirely. Because worn clutch faces, chipped ring teeth, or rattling springs signal Mercury drivers to swap the part, many Mercury guides advocate replacing the unit rather than repeated grinding.

Mercury Cougar Flywheel Parts Questions & Experts Answers
- Q: How to remove and install Flywheel on Mercury Cougar?A:Remove the transmission. For manual transmission models, take off the pressure plate and clutch disc. Remove the mounting bolts; for automatic transmission driveplates, insert a prybar through a hole to prevent the crankshaft from turning while loosening or tightening the bolts. For manual transmission models, use a large screwdriver against the starter ring gear to keep the crankshaft from turning. Pull straight back on the flywheel/driveplate to detach it from the crankshaft, being prepared for its weight. The rear cover plate can be removed if necessary. Inspect the rear oil seal and replace it if needed. Flywheels and driveplates must not be interchanged between supercharged and non-supercharged engines. If a driveplate with balance rivets needs replacement, install new balance pins or rivets in the same locations as the original. Installation is the reverse of removal, ensuring the driveplate is mounted with the torque converter pads facing the transmission. The staggered bolt holes allow for only one correct fit. Use Ford sealant with Teflon or an equivalent on the bolt threads and tighten them to the specified torque in a criss-cross pattern.
