I guess no one has performed this before. Does it just pop off with a little force? Does it need to be twisted off? Any help would be great.

Hit it with something. Usually, a few Peoples Elbows will knock it loose.

Some of the bolts that hold the turbine housing on can actually be used to break it free.

The ones that won't come out all the way because they hit the oil feed or drain can simply be cranked on when they're against the drain/feed and will act as levers pushing the turbine housing away from the center section.


Ball pein hammers and careful swings never hurt anyone either

EDIT: nvm, T-78.....should have vband sections. Just smack it.
