Depends on the cars principle usage,reduced flywheel weight will mean reduced kinetic energy which will probably result in more frequent downward gear changes & may well have more vibration at idle.

Mostly gets used on road, not too much offroad.
It's always ticked over like a dying tractor, do you think it would make that much difference?

Yep,you will need to get it onto Tech 2 scanner & have the idle speed increased,as it will very "lumpy"

Thanks!
Took Gypsys advice and got a new DM flywheel and clutch.
Got what I think was a fantastic bargain.
Brand new flywheel and clutch (off the back of a brand new unused crated engine) £235 all in!!! :dance: :dance: :dance:
Being fitted right now........
