StarletRick Posted May 15, 2008 Share Posted May 15, 2008 in this order. (you need to take the pulley off first, get someone to sit in the car 1st gear with their foot on the brake. its a bastard to get off!)alternator pulley, oil pump, gearbox, clutch, flywheel, sump, pump oil feed. loosen off the crank caps and the big ends on the rods then the thrust bearing. take em all off. crank will drop out.

Spoonz Posted May 15, 2008 Author Share Posted May 15, 2008 in your famous word you ubes lol.So do i drop the gearbox out to get to the fly wheel has im thinking it will be tight to just seperate it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
StarletRick Posted May 15, 2008 Share Posted May 15, 2008 yeah youll have to drop the box right out to get at it properly. the flywheel nuts are tight and youll need to have good access to get them undone properly. also, if you have an engine crane or anything just have it above to hold the engine. once the gbox comes out the block will swing down dowards the drivers side as its only on one mount, so youll need something strong to steady it and stop it dropping down. good luck mate!
