I have removed all case fasteners (20 smaller nuts and/or bolts plus 6 large bolts)--and I have checked at least a dozen times--and compared to various guides. At this point only sealant should be holding the case halves together.
But my gentle and careful efforts have not budged things. And even some slightly more aggressive tapping with a hammer and hardwood dowel has not worked. What to try next? Any good methods besides the tool that wedges the oil strainer hole open? |

Thanks, everyone. Cuddy (and Jake) are the winners. I did some gentle prying on the input shaft seal, and the seam opened along the front the middle. But the rear seam by the flywheel was not cooperating. I resorted to some plastic wedges (door shims) and that did the trick.
