Poonam Sunder · Accepted Answer

Final Answer : D, Explanation :  Technician A is correct in stating that a flywheel is not required when a torque converter flex plate is used, as the flex plate serves a similar purpose in automatic transmissions. However, Technician B is incorrect because the starter motor pinion engages with teeth on the flex plate itself, not on the converter housing.
