the 3 bolts?

anyway, if you've pulled the 54mm bolt, then get a 2x4 plank and lay it across the flywheel. hold it firmly in place and give it whack or two in the center with a hammer. that should do it.

Yeah... wtf 3 bolts? If you are referring to the pressure plate bolts... there's usually 6.. And if you have gotten the big 54mm one, just keep hitting it! Throw some PB Blast on there, let it sit... then come back with anger.

Have you tried reading the flywheel topics listed in the FAQ? This has been covered many times and there is only one method that works 100% of the time.

While prying on the back of the flywheel with a prybar (this takes two people usually), strike the face with a largish hammer near the outer edge. If you are worried about damaging the flywheel then put a bit of metal between the flywheel and the hammer.
