(IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) It was operator error. See further down the thread.
I can't get the trans to bolt to the motor. I don't remember the 901 being this much of a pain in the butt. The motor is a stock 1984 Euro 3.2 motor with stock injection. The trans is a 1986 US 915 gear box with a 916 kit. I can get the clutch arm fork to slide into the throwout bearing, but the trans does not want to go all the way in. I cannot find anything that it is hitting on. The trans is in neutral and the main shaft spins. Is there some other secret to this besides the clutch fork? I was thinking about laying the motor on its face to give me more leverage with the trans. Is this a dumb idea? Anybody live close by that can give me a hand? Beer, barbeque, etc... I think my back is giving out again.. I live in Laguna Niguel.   |
