Snowman Posted January 2, 2005 Share Posted January 2, 2005 How does the oil not get all over the flywheel and clutch and everything else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobBrumby Posted January 3, 2005 Author Share Posted January 3, 2005 like the not flywheel side of the flywheel housing is the back end part of the crankcase. i think i have come to understand that ea82's and ej's have their gudgeon plugs in the flywheel housing. so for an ea81 you take off the housing instead of taking out the other 2 plugs in the housing for ea82/ej.

555Ron Posted April 2, 2011 Share Posted April 2, 2011 Is there any trick to getting the gudgeon pins out? Couldn't see any in this thread. Mine are being very stubborn. I have removed the front pins out of pistons one and 3 and can't get either to move. I stuck a pair of long nose pliers up the center and pushed them apart to try and grip it but they don't want to budge. Sprayed heap of lubricant in there too. This whole motor has been mighty stubborn! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
555Ron Posted April 2, 2011 Share Posted April 2, 2011 A bit of googling and i found Subaru make a special tool to do it but it's uber expensive. I ended up bending the tip of a long flat blade screwdriver 90 degrees and with a lot of prying got #1 and #3 out. Hopefully i'll get #2 and #4 out tomorrow and split the block...

adaboo Posted April 2, 2011 Share Posted April 2, 2011 The easiest way to remove bolt from pully on crank was put a wrench on the bolt then ran a little chain thru the tow hook on drivers side and around the back side of bolt and then just bumped the starter, done. peace out.

This whole motor has been mighty stubborn! I used a slide hammer with a hook like attachment on the end to pull the gudgeon pins out. The clips that hold them in were removed with long nosed pliers from memory. Cheers Bennie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Idasho Posted April 2, 2011 Share Posted April 2, 2011 Interesting. What are those gudgeon plugs for? 'cause my motor doesnt have them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
555Ron Posted April 2, 2011 Share Posted April 2, 2011 Idasho - they're the UK/Aus term for wrist pins. I have them all out now thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Idasho Posted April 3, 2011 Share Posted April 3, 2011 Ah, that makes more sense. I heard the term PLUG, and assumed it was plugging that opening in the case. Carry on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
