Default Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!help!!!!

OK here what happened. my uncle and i installed a jwt flywheel and a clutchmasters clutch this morning. the car starts but doesnt have any power at all!!! you can stomp on the gas and nuthing. sounds like a diesel truck tooo maybe louder. doesnt run and dies when not messing with clutch or gas pedal. i had purchased this flywheel from a member and it has two little holes for alignment ( one is for G35 and other for the 350Z.) well one is covered with like sylicone so i thought for sure it was the other one that i needed. then i was thinking maybe he covered that one to indicate its the one that should be used. can that be the problem????? need your help thanks.

Sounds like it was not installed properly. I imagine the lack of power is due to the clutch not grabbing well. Looks like you're going to have to get it apart and check it out. Sorry I'm not more specific.

You should contact the manufacturer for more details on the install.
