I need to remove my speedo cable drive gear from the bottom of the motor. I've managed to remove the 7/16" bolt that holds down the outer casing via a metal fork, but for the life of me cannot get the drive gear assembly out. I was told it should have popped out with the metal casing but it wont. I tried with long nose pliers to lever it off against the harmonic balancer but no go. Any suggestions please??? |

Keep at it, it's only held down by one bolt so will eventually come away. Might be a trick to try and twist it a little before trying to hard to lift it off. It might need to have the gasket cracked before it will want to come out. Good luck with that one.. |

Nah, i bet he has the retainer out, & now the metal guid sleeve is stuck, they jam like their welded sometimes, steel & alloy just love bonding themselves together you need some good penetrating fluid & some decent grunt & then maybe the nylon gear will break off the bottom of the steel speedo drive tube & leave you in the sh!t & you`ll have to take the whole end casing off the box to get it out 
fun job hey????
good luck
