Default Checking Flywheel

Hey guys...Is there a way to check the flywheel on our cars without removing the engine? I think I may have a couple broken teeth

You can remove the starter and look or check from under the car back side of the motor. There is a small slot where you can see it.

Just did it to and was able see and turn it with a screwdriver after removing the starter. Fortunately, all the teeth were there and the problem was definately the starter.

Well atleast you do not need to remove the tranny and replace the flywheel.
