Retarded flywheel - removal

[Archbish]

Are you turning it the right way??







I\'ll go get my coat...

OK, this is where I went when I had an issue with a nut that would. not. undo.

Drill hole in concrete floor.  
Put in eye anchor bolt.
Chain thing you don\'t want moving to ground.
Put socket and breaker bar on nut (hexagonal metal object, not scrotum filling organic item)
Jack up end of Breaker Bar using Trolley Jack.  

If that doesn\'t undo it, it isn\'t getting undone...

It\'s not the nut bish -  I drilled that mother off. :spank
 
The actual flywheel itself is pressed so hard onto the shaft it doesn\'t want to budge.
 
I\'ve not had chance to have a butchers at it since my day off on Tuesday.  Going to need to get it into a van and get if off to someone with a bigger hammer than me.
 
I was wondering if a hammer/drill with rotary stop and the blunter chisel attachment - which kills brick walls and concrete - would give it a hard enough time to come off.  Since I don\'t need to reuse this flywheel it may get hosed in the process - it may come to that.
 
What I don\'t really want to do is damage the eccentric shaft.

Sorry, my bad for misreading it...


you thought about taking the engine off the flywheel instead?? *grin*

[Prof]

Big thankyou to Carl Hayward - \'Hammer Time\' :Giggle:Giggle
 
Well it\'s off so I can get the engine apart now and start the main strip down.
 
:driving

Although they cost a lot of money you can\'t beat the good old Mazda sst.

how was it done then Dave?

how was it done then Dave?

Magic.  Definitely an \'SST\' - but I suspect not a Mazda one.
 
If Carl want\'s to share his secret method then I\'ll let him say.  Suffice it to say there is definitely a knack to it - as I thought I was doing what he did, but not the right way obviously.
