I have taken out the five bolts surrounding the bellhousing, but it stays attached in the centre near the spline. How do I get that $#%@$#%&(@!)*& bellhousing off the engine? Again, no bolts have been left on and it (the bellhousing) spins around on the flywheel, so what's holding it on?

Is there some kind of fitting inside the centre of the thing near where the spline goes in? Or do I have to yank it ?

Sorry for the girlie question.

clutch pin and pressure plate bolts.

The fork is holding the thing on.

The fork?

Is the fork the thingy that, when you depress it, the clutch seems to move?

How do I get at these? I recall from looking inside I think a couple of allen key bolts. Is that right?

On a 931 the clutch pin is held tight by a 10mm bolt, backit out all the way and squirt some penetrant in the hole and around the pin. Find a bolt that will fit the threads on the end of the pin and try pulling it with a claw hammer or vice grips.

If you can get to the allen head bolts on the pressure plate remove those and everything will pop out. Loosen them all in sequence before removing. Careful on the heads as they will strip out so be sure you have the allen tool seated in the bottom of the hole.

Ok I'll try that.
