What are four functions of flywheel?

ANSWER

Inertial mass (assist smaller engines by storing and releasing torque on take-off)
Vibration dampening (the make-up of the flywheel also lends itself to dampening)
Power transfer (this is how the power is transferred from the crank to the transmission)
Engine starting (this is where the starter teeth engage the flywheel ring gear)
