When I remove the transmission inspection plate I think thats what its called, is there a seal I need to look out for and or replace? Will clearly see where to clamp the vice grip or are there parts of the flywheel I dont want to touch. Im sure Ill know once I crack it open but im just trying to get as much knowledge as possible prior to tear down.
