Title: flywheel removal
Post by: 77 cc lb on May 19, 2010, 05:41:58 pm
hey everyone! i have a situation, kinda goes w/ my other post. i have the tranny pulled back out of the way and the bolts off of the flywheel. i try to pull it off and it will shimmy like it wants to come off, but it won't. is there a trick to this? thanks for any help.

Put a little PB blaster on there and just wiggle it in a few different spots. It'll come off.

it does look a little rusted. i didn't  know if the pins had anything to do w/ it not coming out. i have a new one and noticed that the bolt holes are too big. i don't know if the old one is like that or worse because i drove it loose and made it bigger. almost tempted to loctite the bolts and put them back in. any thoughts.

Loctite or clear finger nail polish will also work
