Went to pull the clutch off the new to me low mile 2 L engine and the pressure plate bolts don't allow a socket to fit securely on them.
Is this normal, or is my "fun" with this engine about to start in earnest?  |

QUOTE(76-914 @ Jun 16 2018, 06:55 PM)  use a crows foot So not necessarily indicative of anything wrong? All of the tutorials I found via searching just used a socket without issue. Thanks! |

QUOTE(Tdskip @ Jun 16 2018, 05:27 PM) One I have is too thick... Jesus God, that's a Fat Crows Foot! And the Mlinder is correct. A thin wall socket or line wrench will also work. They shouldn't be very tight. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) |
