Good Day.. What I got done this weekend. So Far...
« on: July 08, 2006 3:49 pm »
Well I was thinking last night that I should either clean the shed or get to work on the olds motor to see if I could free it up to remove the transmission.  I have had this thing soaking with Gibbs in the cylinder holes for a  couple of months and no luck in getting it to move.  There was mouse piss in the #1 when I removed the head and I cleaned it up best I could.  I was unable to get any leverage on the balancer to try and rotate the motor.  So this morning I went out and removed the lower half of the bellhousing so I could get access to the flywheel.  I got the old pry bar on the teeth of the flywheel and between the bellhousing and with just a little leverage was able to get it to pop free.   WOOHOO.....  So this is a Good Day, I now wish I would have done this months ago.  Now I can finally remove the transmisson and get this up on the engine stand.  
Anyway its been kinda slow on here so I thought I would post this.
