Hell 'n' Back

What special tools do I need to tear down my 13BT and re-assemble it?

54mm socket to take off the flywheel with (that and giant strength)
torque wrench

unless im an idiot, thats it

if you dont have a rotary engine stand, you have to get kinda creative on the reassembly to get the eshaft in and everything all lined up. i do it on a table and use some big books to stack it on so it has room for the eshaft out the bottom

EDIT: 54mm or 2 1/8

heavy mallet to help wack the flywheel off...

Um... If you don't have a torque wrench you're going to have to be creative on how to stop the flywheel from rotating while you crank on it (with breaker bar and extension etc.) and you'll probably have to 'chain the block down' so it doesn't roll over with from the cranking.

I use a piece of heavy steel that has "teeth" cut into it, that fit into the teeth of the flywheel. It bolts onto one of the motor/tranny bolt-holes and another (don't know the name) hole. It locks the flywheel in place while you apply the 300ft/lb's it takes to pwn the flywheel nut.

If you have even the most basic sockets, wrenches and screwdrivers, you'll probably be just fine it the actual disassembly/reassembly of the motor (aside from the aformentioned tools).

Good luck mang,
