Put a long bolt through a box end wrench and screw it into one of the top bell housing bolt holes. Get another bolt and slip it through the other end of the box end wrench. With the wrench at approximately horizontal, attach that bolt to one of the pressure plate bolt holes. Rotate the flywheel until the bolts are tight against the bolts so the flywheel will not rotate. Use a long pull handle and remove the flywheel bolts by rotating them counter clockwise. Done!

@stellarv5689 2 месяца назад

You can also use 2 braker bars and 2 sockets same size. Use one for loosening while having the the other one hold the next bolt. You'll loosen 2 bolts in one turn

@steveo782812 6 лет назад

Thanks for making the video. If you use the metal bracket, would you replace the bolts you use in that bracket afterwards? I didn't know if some of the threads get messed up because they are partially extended. I never thought to use a puller. I always saw here people had a piece of fabricated metal.

@CarsNToys 6 лет назад

If the bolts don't bend and the threads look good I would reuse them.

@Luchoedge 3 года назад

Thanks! This really helped! I screwed a bolt in the flywheel and another in the engine body, where the transmission attaches, and tied them with several loops of wire. Then broke the bolts loose by grabbing onto the chassis and pushing with my legs. Suprisingly fast and effortless for a job done on the side of the road!

@steverose2405 6 лет назад

After the bolts are removed, what do you do when the flywheel stays in place?

@CarsNToys 6 лет назад

Try tapping the rear of the flywheel with a mallet. Place something soft to catch the flywheel so it doesn't crash on to your garage floor. (An old towel, tshirts, etc.)

@steverose2405 6 лет назад

After a fair bit of mallet tapping and penetrating oil application, it has not budged. It has likely been on that crankshaft since 1966. I will make a simple puller and post a video.

@JoeBlowski 3 года назад

@traviscarr6536 6 лет назад

Impact wrench is the best option. One way to lock the motor up is take out a couple spark plugs and cram em full of rope.

@CarsNToys 6 лет назад

Interesting tip! Thank you.

@traviscarr6536 6 лет назад

My air compressor got a hole in it when I was working on a Suzuki 1.3 liter. My impact was down due to the compressor. I remembered how I disassembled chainsaws by removing the plug and made sure I turned it to get as much cord-string as possible inside. It always works on saws, so I thought why not try it on a vehicle. First time I tried was the Chevy Metro with Suzuki motor and it worked like a charm. Pulled the cord out after finished and it run like a charm. Done it with couple cars now to hold engine in place and it works every time.

How to torque them back up? using the same technique?

You could but check with a repair manual specific for your vehicle. You'll find torque numbers and tightening sequence.

I don’t think a screw driver would work if the back bolt broke loos instead of the front…best to use a harbor freight pry bar in the teeth

@ssimon64 4 года назад

While I totally appreciate the effort put into this video, forget it, just get air tools. I was under the truck today fucking around with ratchets and breaker bars and there's no way I was getting that flywheel off, I borrowed an air powered 1/2" impact gun from my work, I already have my own compressor, that gun zipped those bolts right off like they were nothing, no need to brace the flywheel or anything, then I tapped the flywheel off with a 4 lb sledge thru the starter hole in the witness plate, worked like a charm.

@CarsNToys 4 года назад

Good tips! Glad it worked out.

@type2drvr50 5 лет назад

I sat through this whole thing to see how to get the fly wheel off and all I got was you taking bolts off. My flywheel doesn’t just fall off.

@CarsNToys 5 лет назад

Try a pry bar and place some padding on the ground to 'catch' the flywheel.

@kneecaps2000 4 года назад

Never put anything on the front crank pulley to remove a fly wheel. You run the VERY REAL risk of breaking the torque on the main crank bolt .... lock the flywheel/flexplate in position with a tool of some kind..even put the transmission mounting bolts in and put a big screw driver in the teeth..ANYTHING but use something on the front crank bolt.

@@biopsiesbeanieboos55 bro, I do Millwright work, pipe fitting, boiler making and almost anything else that can think of in industrial construction. I’ve been in this field for 25 years. I started out at the bottom. I am now a superintendent with a company and you can be a baby if you want. I know people enjoy doing things there on way. not everybody has an impact. I understand that but if you have an impact, you don’t have to do all that. I’m glad that he knows the way to do it without the impact but at the same time if you’re approaching this job without an impact, you should probably give the work away because you’re working yourself to death for no absolute reason. Sorry you got your feelings hurt! Ik thru text that prolly came off a lil like a butthole. I apologize didn mean it that way.

@andrewthompsonuk1 6 лет назад

And you still need to torque the bolts when you put it back,,,

@steveo782812 6 лет назад

I was always worried that an impact might round off the heads of the bolts. I thought the heads of the bolts seemed kind of shallow. I have a set of harbor freight impacts and they have a bevel at the end, so I was worried if I ever used them it might round these off. I even saw where someone talked about taking an angle grinder to a socket to remove the bevel and cut back the deep well so that it is flat at the end of the socket. Good to know.

@rbalderson5568 7 лет назад

First idiot mechanic trick at 20s in. Anybody with some common sense would try to undo the bolts 'across' the centre line, not torquing the engine round! Likely a wooden block under the flywheel and a smart impulse strike on the proper spanner for the job would do it. Another spanner to hold another bolt would help.

@Kevin-wy8kc 6 лет назад

lmfao

@josephrobinson8894 Год назад

Another way to remove the bolts is remove the bolts at 3 , 4, and 5 o’clock first Then rotate the flywheel til the other bolts are at the same position and remove those. Just make sure the breaker bar is at a level position, 9 to 3 o’clock !!!!
