Lizzord30 Posted May 18, 2012 Report Share Posted May 18, 2012 I am changing my engine and trying to get the ring that goes in the end of the crank off the old engine to put that on the new engine (new engine is a manual) And I cant figure how to get that ring out of the old one. Anyone have any tricks to remove it? Thanks!! My new engine is almost ready to go in the car just need this removed from old one to get to the new engine before i can put it together!

Richie_Rich Posted May 19, 2012 Report Share Posted May 19, 2012 You can take a bolt that just fits inside the donut and work the ring out by hitting the end of the bolt sideways.The longer the bolt the better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
89BananaQuest Posted May 21, 2012 Report Share Posted May 21, 2012 Or u may look into just buying a new one. Or if u can find something that fits really snuggly into the hole fill it with greese then pust the socket or what ever u have that fits into the hole and it should pop out.

Chad Posted May 21, 2012 Report Share Posted May 21, 2012 liquid from one of those "canned air" spray cans you use for cleaing keyboards. Just tip it upside down and it sprays out the liquid contents, they rapidly boil off and super-chill whatever you spray it on. Get the carank end warm/hot with a torch and then spray just the ring. Shoudl shrink it enough to fall out (perhaps with some persuation). Shouldn't be cold enough to temp-shock the crank metal. I'd try other methods first but this is an option. You could also try chilling it with ICE after heating the crank, but the water gettign in to the joint and crank threads would be problematic. Douce it with some WD-40 before and after, the WD stands for water displacing, that what it was origionaly designed to to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
