View Full Version : virtically challenged
Anyone know how to part virtically split cases without paying someone to do it or buying special tools, etc... My bro tried once with screw drivers, kinda put me off a bit! Got to be done though. :confused:

yes always good fun this one.
some casses have bosses cast into them to insert a lever. never lever on the cases mating surfaces.
ensure everything is removed from the outer cases check there are no missed bolts hidden by other parts.
warm the cases with a hot air gun, protect the crankshaft threads with a nut and only use a nylon/rubber hammer.
if it sperates unevenly you can insert hard nylon wedges, hardwood ones work also.
main thing is take your time some vertical cases cannot be hurried.
have fun...
Cheers, will give it a go.
It worked! and only took 20 minutes too :)
