F-20 clutch removal

If you can’t see what’s in there, I assume that you’re having trouble getting the clutch housing (cover)off the bell housing. The clutch housing comes off in one piece. The Clutch shaft, clutch shifter forks, etc. should come off with it. If you’ve removed the clutch housing bolts and it won’t lift off, it’s probably that the clutch shaft is rusted onto the clutch spline. My suggestion would be to remove the clutch housing hand hole cover and spray penetrating oil, WD-40, etc in there and see if that will help. (Better watch for mice though, they enter through the timing hole opening in the bell housing and just love to make there home in there. Their excrement can make the rusting sever.) If you can get the clutch housing loose, even just a bit; you should be able to roll the cover over so that the hand hole is up. (It’ll make it much easier to squirt the penetrating oil in.) Give it a few days to soak, and hopefully it’ll loosen up enough so you can get it free. Brad A (ore)
