    Method to repair damaged crank/ flywheel key?

    agree on the tapers if the key way is really buggerd and it bothers you. you can get enecon steel shaft repair epoxy. wax up a new key, use the epoxy, dress the repair to match shaft taper. however the key way is there primarily so you align the crank and flywheel properly

    if its man-made, it will fail just had the transmission on the truck eat itself, a VVT sprocket on a new engine fail and a brand new door lock actuator on the VW become non-responsive.
