89 ezgo clutch removal
So i tried to fabricate a clutch puller instead of spending the $35 . I have a metal rod crammed down there now and it seems the bolt wont push any farther... i also pumped it full of grease no luck and now its been soaking in pb blaster.... am i screwed because i dont think i can get the metal rod out

Re: 89 ezgo clutch removal
not sure what the problem is, (bolt not going far enough) Is the rod to short? everything seems like it should work, just won't come off? you can probably gget the rod out with a magnet on a rod, the kind we use to get loose nuts bolts you drop when working on cars, etc... I always use the puller and a impact wrench, the impact is a must on some of them.

Re: 89 ezgo clutch removal
sounds like you are saying the 3/4 bolt won't go down anymore. did you try the bolt without the rod, just to make sure the threads were clean? i had to run a tap down ours before the bolt would go in, even with an impact.
also, unless the rod is real tight try to take the whole engine and tap it down on a hard surface. this should get the rod at least out to the end of the clutch. good luck jim |

Re: 89 ezgo clutch removal
I still have about 1/2 inch before the bolt would bottom out but am not getting anymore movement out of it with the impact. I will have to try and slam it into the floor to see if i can pop it out... good news the fan wheel on the other side came off
