bell housing
on the bell housing of my 1.6 deisel there is a circular hole just to the right of the starter motor. It's about 2 inches in diameter and is threaded. I can see the teeth on the flywheel through it, I assume he should be something screwed into it, but what?
Re: bell housing
Usually has a big plastic plug in it, its for doing cam/pump timing. If you look down the hole you can see a little metal notch, this is to line up the flywheel.
