Hey everyone,

I was looking into purchasing a used clutch/fw from someone, but they noticed there's a bit of surface rust on the fw.  Is this something I should be concerned about?

Thanks!

Nothing a machine shop can't handle with a resurfacing. If the FW has been out of the car for a little while, it'll do that. Similar to brake rotors. I wouldn't worry about it too much.

Just consider the cost part of your haggleing.

I wouldn't buy a used clutch.  You can have the flywheel machined, but don't buy a used clutch.  Always get a new clutch.
