Question How do I remove the flywheel?

Im changing the clutch and we managed to get everything off except the flywheel the bolts in the center arent moving and we even tried to use an air compressor. Any helpful advice is appreciated, thanks in advance.

If they are as tough as mine were, either an air impact or you will need to wedge a junk socket or something similar in between one of the flywheel teeth and dowel pins on the engine and a good ole breaker bar with a pole for some leverage, easy as cake.

lol. Brings back memories.

What type of air gun an what is the torque rating?

I used a harbor freight air gun and got all my bolts off. I wasn't able to get them on the first try. It took me 10 tries for each bolt. I use a 2 gallon air compressor, so it took me about 15 minutes per bolt.

Keep drilling at those bolts with the impact until they come off. Or do what they have suggested ^

leave the dow in and pry off it on the flywheel....i had a buddy with a huge screwdriver hold it against the dow preventing the flywheel from moving and i popped everyone loose easily.

^^^This, I usually stick one of the tranny bolts in and a pry bar to keep the flywheel from turning. Impact wrench since its torqued to about 100 ft lbs (atleast on SRs, KA's slight lower IIRC). If you wanna be a man, a long ass wrench with a cheater bar on it.

Or put a jack under the end of the wrench and jack it up to loosen the bolt.

Also, another way to prevent the flywheel from spinning is to put a socket wrench with a long arm/extension on the crank pulley bolt and let it wedge against the ground or the frame rail.

Thanks for the help everbody, I hadnt been able to get back to you on this due to headaches and forgetfulness of postings. I know this was awhile back, but I just ended up towing it to a shop :P the trans and clutch are fine now. The main reason I wanted to change it was because my car would just idle in first from time to time and because of my lack of knowledge I thought it was either the clutch or trans. and it turns out it was a stupid clutch fluid dampener thing. removed it in one morning once I knew what I was dealing with. It wasnt easy learning about it since theirs not alot of info about it on the internet, and not everyone owns a 240 lol. Thank Goodness for youtube!

So you wasted money to fix a problem that had been covered many times? Try searching harder next time.

They call this the tech section for a reason you know...

I paid to have the trans rebuilt (I didnt have reverse) and bought a new clutch while i was at it. I removed the stupid clutch fluid dampener myself once i found out about it. The mechanics that rebuilt my trans and every other mechanic I talked to didnt know what was making my car idle, if they did I mightve figured it out sooner. Apparently its a 240 thing, and how was i supposed to look up something that i didnt even know existed?? everyone and everything told me it was a transmission problem when i tried explaining it.


Its all good now.

You can also use half inch drive ratchet and peck with a good heavy hammer but make sure socket is on bolts snuggly while a friend wedges a big flat screwdriver in flywheel teeth this may help you next time if you dont have access to air tools

Mine came of without any fight and all I used was a 3/8 drive so I don't know if that was a good thing or a bad thing

Try heating the bolts up with a torch. It should soften the metal just a little
