Apparently the fiber thrust washers are out on my 70 John Deere diesel as I can actually see the flywheel move with the cover off and operating the clutch with the engine running. I can also hear a squeal like metal on metal from behind the flywheel when it moves right. Is this a common problem on the two cylinder tractors? How do the washers get their lubrication? From what I can see in the figure in my service manual, they are on the outside of the oil seal.
