  • Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

So I seem to have a problem, I bought a 1995 360 from the original owners and tried to pull the mag, using a proper puller, it's the 2 piece type that uses an inner bolt
so got it on there and put enough torque to start twisting the inner bolt, nothing
used a MAP torch on the flywheel, nothing :mad:
so anyone have a special trick for a mag that has not been off for about 22 years :confused:
 
I was working on an old 390 engine, and had to have somebody build me a puller for it. Then I couldn't get the thing to budge. I tried an impact, a hammer, heat....phooey! Finally, I walked away from the engine for a second, and while my back was turned, the puller and flywheel just went pop and came off!:eek:
 
I've seen the flywheel actually spot weld itself to the crankshaft, probably because of harmonics or maybe the nut wasn't completely tight. I broke a snap-on puller and the force mushroomed the end of the crank. Not very often but sometimes you have to destroy the crank to get the engine apart, eventually you run out of options.
 
Remove the puller, put cover back on and list it on Craigslist as a going concern. ....

But seriously remove puller put some pb down the gap, re install the puller put tension on and heat leave to cool apply more pressure apply heat and give a tap on the pullers bolt whilest it's warm.
It's In the hands of the dirt gods now.
Just keep repeating the process it should come. In the end.

so selling is an option, most of the diehard folks here would rather sell their children, you speak blasphemy :lol:
 
If it's between letting her go and never knowing of the pain she came too and destroying her by my own fair hand I would choose selling her, too many times I have inflicted more punishment thanks is needed.
Lol
 
pssshh, over a flywheel?? itll come off. if anything it just needs some heat.

ive seen some old timers keep a toilet bowl wax ring around the shop...use it with the heat to melt and penetrate. ive seen it work on some stubborn stuff
of course, with the puller installed real tight and a bit of heat applied you can wack the end of the puller a bit...straight in..
