el_freddo Posted February 7, 2020 Share Posted February 7, 2020 Yep. One access port behind the flywheel is held in with some countersunk Phillips head bolts. The best way to get these out is with an impact driver. Cheers Bennie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ocei77 Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 An easy way to get the pins out is as follows. You need a pair of needle nose pliers to remove and reinsert the circlips, a 22mm socket on a ratchet to turn the crank and a stiff rod of some sort about 18 to 24 inches long I only remove the circlip that allows the pins to be pushed out. You use the rod to snake past the connecting rod in front of you and tap out the pin from the back of the rod you're working on. ie, snaking past 3 to tap 1 out etc. Use a 3/4" wood dowel as a drift to insert the pin. Leaving the backside circlip in allows you to tap until it seats firmly. O. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
