C Piston Sleeves Out!

Posted by Pharmall on June 06, 2005 at 17:57:45 from (68.9.106.167):

Finally got the piston sleeves out using a home-built puller.
This was a VERY tight set. It took about as much force as you
are comfortable with putting on a 1/2" socket wrench. All four
were stuck hard. The only explanation I have is quite a thick
layer of crud now visible inside the engine block, and a fair
amount of corrosion on the sleeves. The block, o-ring seats,
and sleeve flange seats will need a good cleaning. Thanks for all
of the suggestions! Think I'll try the "drill two holes" method to
remove the crankshaft pulley. Even though it is out of the
engine, there doesn't seem to be a good way to chuck it up in a
press with the timing gear cover still attached. Jeff
